Bus users in Auckland will soon be able to take advantage of a new smartcard for public transport.
Auckland Transport today announced the introduction of the card as part of a phased lead-in to the full introduction of the region's first fully integrated ticketing system next year.
The launch of the "hop-on and hop-off" (Hop) smartcard follows earlier announcements on the development of an integrated system and a participation agreement between Auckland Transport, Snapper and NZ Bus on working with the new central system.
The Hop smartcard replaces Go Rider cards and will be rolled out over coming months.
The card will simplify how people pay for and use public transport and will make boarding faster and easier, Auckland Transport chief executive David Warburton said.
It will also be rolled out for use on NZ Bus services.
