Public transport is a means of transport for passengers by group available for public travel. Covid-19 is transmitted through droplets generated when an infected person coughs, sneezes or exhales through close contact between peoples. The concern of this study was investigating the social distancing practices in Ethiopia in line with WHO and others standards in public transport. Taping was used for data collection like seat width, passageway width, longitudinal, lateral and diagonal spacing between passengers. Relative method of analysis was used in this study. In Ethiopia around 25% of population access road public transport. Ethiopia reduces by half (1/2) the number of passenger per vehicle to minimize transmission of covid-19. The study revealed that reduction by half (1/2) cannot fulfill the social distancing set by WHO and others. Based on detail analysis and investigation the study advices and recommends fifth sixth (5/6) and two third (2/3) reduction of number of passenger per vehicle for Double seat bus in both corridor, and single seat in both corridor and mixed seat (double seat at one corridor and single on the other) bus respectively with the support of protective equipment like face mask, daily hand wash practices, uses of sanitizers and etc.,
