Telvent to supply Calgary smart card-based system

Telvent was selected by The City of Calgary to implement a contactless smart card-based electronic fare collection (EFC) system for Calgary Transit.

When the project is completed, Calgary Transit will provide to over 94 million passengers per year a more convenient method to pay for fares.

The new contactless EFC system will allow Calgary Transit to obtain information from the field fare collection equipment, customize fare policy and offer more flexible methods of payment.
