      In Dublin.

      Meanwhile we’re still awaiting the promised introduction of the side leap validators and 90 minute fare on Cork buses…

      >“Unlike many international contactless ticketing programmes that are rolled out by city or region, the NTA in partnership with Indra, is delivering a highly complex, end‑to‑end solution designed to ultimately operate across the entire Transport for Ireland network, delivering a single, integrated solution for buses, trains, trams and regional services.

      I feel like a rollout by city is better than the big bang approach, where we’re not waiting until 2028 for anywhere to get the system at all and any issues with the system can be found and fixed when it’s cheap to do so.

      “Next Generation” state of the art system… to do something that Transport for London rolled out in 2012. Trainline in the UK have been running a pilot system that just uses an app and gps to tag on and off and then it calculates your fare. It supports weekly caps and discount cards and doesn’t need any physical infrastructure changes. They’re planning to roll it out to buses too.

      Embarrassing that this has taken this long. Literally over a decade behind most countries in implementing this.

      Is Leap getting the bin? I know in London they still kept the Oyster card. Most people use contactless though

      There was talk of them stopping taking cash but seems as how it isn’t mentioned I presume that’s not the case anymore?

      🙄🙄🙄 contactless would be facial recognition / biometrics linked to your account so you can just walk onto the bus/train/plane and anyone not supposed to be there will alert security!

      Does RTÉ know how to proof read?

      Ireland comes kicking and screaming into the future where other EU countries have had systems like this for years. Yay ireland
