From the underground will release tickets

The turnstiles at the output of the Moscow subway is planned to equip with devices for reading the ticket, said the chief of service of passenger services in the Moscow Metropolitan Andrey Filatov. This will allow the management service to know not only the stations where passengers enter the station, but where they go.

In the Moscow metro is preparing changes: turnstiles, which are output, it is planned to equip with devices for reading tickets. Therefore, the person to exit from the station to the street, will have to use the ticket, which he used to enter. Cash for all this will not be debited, but passengers will have to save single tickets before the end of the journey.

"To identify the passenger at the output you want the turnstiles standing at the exit, had the opportunity to learn the passenger with a map. For example, in accordance with the work of the ski-pass at pass ski at ski resorts. The passenger applies map, wing turnstile opened, the drive will not be deducted" - quoted My head of passenger services in the Moscow Metropolitan Andrey Filatov.

In that case, if the system will be implemented, the management of the subway will get information about where the passengers went underground, where they went and what amount of time spent on the road. And holders of the "Troika" will also receive a loyalty program. It implies the emergence of a system of bonuses in shopping centers and cafes for passengers on those stations, where they are usually.

In the public relations division, subway announced that after starting a fresh system of turnstiles, running to the exit, passengers will have to save before you exit the metro even single tickets. Note that at the moment the ticket is written that they should be saved until the end of the trip. "But this inscription nobody reads. Tickets thrown out, because on the platforms and on the way out no one checks", - said the expert of the center of expertise Probok.net Alexander Chekmarev.

But not many stations are equipped with turnstiles at the outputs, and some of them are not adapted for the installation of similar equipment. For example, at the station "Komsomolskaya" when installed at the exit turnstiles will accumulate a large queue. And yet, if the metro will be able well to rebuild logistics, passengers will not have additional difficulties.
