Cale Access delivers 300 bus fare ticket terminals
Cale Access AB has received an order to deliver bus fare ticket terminals to the public transport company Stockholm Transport (SL). During autumn 2006, SL took the decision to stop ticket purchases with cash onboard buses within the Stockholm County in Sweden.
Cale Access, already well established as supplier of parking terminals in Stockholm, was one of the companies invited to submit a tender. In January, Cale Access was chosen as the supplier. The contract consists of 300 ticket terminals to be delivered and installed by April 1st, after which time it will no longer be possible to purchase tickets using cash. The terminals will be installed at selected bus stops and underground stations.
At the same time, around one hundred existing parking terminals belonging to the traffic aministration authority, Stockholms Stads Trafikkontor, will be upgraded to enable the purchasing of bus fare tickets in addition to parking tickets.
The new ticket terminals will be spread throughout the entire Stockholm region and they will be connected via the Cale WebOffice service for the collection of card transactions, gathering of statistics and processing of alarms, etc.
This is an important strategic step for Cale Access, explains Torkel Härdeman, Managing Director. We have already been working within the public transport sector via the Almex brand, and this represents very positive and interesting progress.
