Transport in Baku will be on card system?
In the near future public transport in the capital will go to a single card cashless payment system, said the company "Baku Passenger Transport". Terminals for payment "BakıKart" have been installed on a number of subway stations. The cost of the card will be two manat. In late May, the six bus routes in Baku will be non-cash fare. Cashless payment system will be applied to 515 buses "Daewoo" on 29 routes in the center of Baku. Installing the equipment in buses for electronic payments. Today completed the installation of terminals in 10 bus route number 52, which are tested. By the end of May there will be a similar system on routes №1, 6, 14, 25, 52 and 95. Until the end, all public transport will use cashless payment system, the report said. Currently, there are more than 2,500 buses in the capital. It is difficult to say how realistic is the use of this system, given the conflicts of interest hosts routes and especially the interests of drivers. Currently, these people work 12-14 hours a day. The collected money they will share with the company or the owner of the route. Cashless payment means that they will get a good salary. However, the salary will be lower than the money of those drivers who work for wear. In this case, drivers must go on shift work, but they are unlikely to agree to reduce their fundamentals income. Therefore, we should expect the protests and other forms of discontent on the part of bus drivers.-02D-
