Operations Committee Automatic Fare Collection and Smart Card System Update June 19, 2012 Page 2 of 2 • Farebox Pilot Test on 40 Busses October 2012 • Cash and existing paper fare media only Farebox Installed on Full Fleet April 2013 • Cash and existing paper fare media only Near-Term Installation Activities Ticket Vending Machines and Validators will be replaced in Illinois. The new equipment will have several new features, such as paying with credit cards, which will make purchasing tickets easier for the customer. The new validators will be installed to provide a clear delineation to the paid fare zone, a “virtual” gate, where all customers will be required to show proof of valid fare. The installation of the validators will have challenges as the entrances to the platform will need to remain open during construction activities. To help the customer understand the changes that will be occurring, <strong>Metro</strong> will have ambassadors at the stations to help customers. This, along with other customer notifications and press releases, will help minimize the impact on customers. MANAGEMENT RECOMMENDATION: No action is required.
