Date Posted: 09:03:00 02/09/03 Sun In reply to: introduction in 1998 of a MIFARE contactless chip card 's message, "The new multi-application card stemsMoscow Metro system." on 08:46:34 02/09/03 Sun Details -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date Of Media Release 16/11/1997 Title New AFC Contract in Moscow Contact Sarah Manners – Manager Corporate Communications E Phone 041 114 7749 or 08 9273 1204 Fax 08 9273 1208 Division ERG Transit Systems -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New AFC Contract in Moscow ERG Limited’s subsidiary, AES Prodata, has signed a contract to supply a new automated fare collection system for the Moscow Metro. The system will be launched later this year. The new system will include V3000 combined magnetic and contactless smart card readers, barriers, on-station computers, a data collection infrastructure management system and a card personalisation and issuing system. The V3000 offers the flexibility to read both contactless smart cards and magnetic stripe cards. The Metro is the main mode of transport for 3 million passengers per day, and accounts for 47% of all journeys made in the city. The implementation of a new revenue collection system was required to improve fare collection, reduce fraud and handle the increasing volume of passenger journeys. Initially, 153 Metro stations will be equipped with two modified gates in each hall (240 entrance halls). The number of gates fitted with the new automated fare collection system will eventually increase to eight per hall. The value of the contract is approximately A$8.4 million and will potentially lead to greater opportunities in Moscow and Russia. Moscow Metro’s decision to award the contract to AES Prodata was influenced by the Company’s international experience in providing multi-modal ticketing solutions in various cities, including Bucharest, and progress to date in Melbourne and Hong Kong. The V3000 units will be installed on the existing turnstiles, with magnetic stripe tickets being used for single, multi-ride tickets and monthly passes. All V3000 units have the capability to read contactless smart cards, which will initially only be used by Metro staff. In the future, the system will be upgraded and extended to cover other classes of concessionaire. It is planned to introduce Point-of-Sale (POS) equipment in sales outlets at Metro stations. These will dispense magnetic tickets and add value to smart cards. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
