The National Transport Commission has announced plans to introduce an electronic payment system for public transport in the near future. This new initiative aims to reduce reliance on cash while offering passengers a more convenient and efficient way to pay for their travel.
With the upcoming system, commuters will be able to make payments via bank cards, providing a seamless and secure method for transactions. The Transport Commission has confirmed that electronic payment devices will be installed on every bus across the network, ensuring accessibility for all passengers.
This move is expected to modernize public transport services, enhance convenience, and streamline fare collection processes. The Commission also highlighted that the transition to electronic payments aligns with ongoing efforts to promote a cashless society and improve overall passenger experience.
More details on the timeline and rollout of the new system will be shared in the coming months.
