Information Regarding Buses 155 and 156 to Ushatyn: Payment of Fare Upon Boarding
The ongoing "Ysyakh Tuimada-2025" festival in the Ust Khatin area is experiencing an unusual challenge due to the lack of mobile internet connectivity, which is causing difficulties for various services, including the fare collection system on buses traveling to the festival. Despite this, the Municipal Road Transport Service has implemented a new fare collection system that requires passengers to pay upon boarding.
The new fare collection system is designed to streamline the boarding process, improve operational efficiency, reduce delays, enhance crowd management, and increase security and accountability. However, the absence of mobile internet connectivity in the Ust Khatin area is causing issues with the validators.
Mobile internet connectivity is essential for supporting electronic payment systems, real-time fare verification, data transmission and reporting, and customer convenience. With reliable mobile internet, buses can use mobile POS terminals or QR code scanners to accept digital payments instantly. The internet also allows the system to verify tickets, passes, or mobile payments in real time, reducing fraud.
Despite the challenges posed by the mobile internet issues, the Municipal Road Transport Service has not announced any specific measures to address the problem. Passengers are asked to cooperate with the new fare collection system to avoid any inconvenience. The Service urges passengers to understand and adapt to the new fare collection method to ensure a smooth festival experience.
It is important to note that the new fare collection system does not accept prepaid tickets or passes. Passengers are encouraged to carry sufficient cash or be prepared to pay via other means available on the bus.
The "Ysyakh Tuimada-2025" festival is a significant event in the Ust Khatin area, and the implementation of the new fare collection system, despite the mobile internet issues, demonstrates the Service's commitment to providing efficient and reliable transportation services during the festival. Passengers are advised to plan their travel accordingly and cooperate with the new system to ensure a hassle-free festival experience.
The new fare collection system, despite its challenges with validators due to the lack of mobile internet connectivity in the Ust Khatin area, aims to enhance operational efficiency, security, and accountability in public-transit transportation during the "Ysyakh Tuimada-2025" festival. Despite not accepting prepaid tickets or passes, passengers are encouraged to carry sufficient cash or be prepared to pay via other means available on the bus, highlighting the industry's and finance sector's efforts to provide efficient and reliable transportation solutions.
