Manage episode 523265705 series 2098282
Public transport users in the Capital can start using debit and credit cards and phones on buses and trains - from next March.
Greater Wellington Regional Council will introduce contactless payments - at a cost of 5.5 million dollars.
It's jumping the gun on the Government National Ticketing System, scheduled for mid-2027.
Council Chair Daran Ponter told Ryan Bridge they don't trust the timeline.
He says he's sick of telling Wellington commuters they can't have something that's available in Auckland and Australia.
