As a key unit in public transport, over the past time, the Transerco has positively cooperated with Telecoms Group Viettel and Nhat Cuong Company to build a project on e-tickets for public passenger transport services in Ha Noi. The Municipal People’s Committee assigned the Transerco to take prime responsibility to set up e-tickets for BRT lines and subsidized bus routes which are capable of integrating with urban railways in future.

Units built and reported a pilot BRT e-ticket project to the Municipal People’s Committee and the Department of Transport. Accordingly, passengers using daily and monthly bus tickets for a single route will be eligible for the e-ticket. Those who use multi-ride tickets will be supplied with an automatic entrance paper ticket with a QR code to get through the card readers.

Additionally, units installed 23 bus stops (control gate system, security cameras, ticket selling machines and internet services, e-ticket software and passenger management databases). Meanwhile, the Departments of Transport, Finance and Taxation will be responsible for approving ticket forms and processes of e – ticket issuance and management.
