Trans Metro Pekanbaru

Above the credit-card sized smart card is shown. However, the system does not work: the card is purchased from the ticket vendor in the bus shelter and handed to the bus conductor who then operates the turnstyle manually and hands the cards to one of the vendors in another bus shelter.... The pictures below show a typical bus shelter. The ticket vendor has a simple wooden desk, the bus can be reached by going up a number of steps onto a very small platform. Evidently capacity of the system is limited! The route map shows the existing and planned corridors. Tariff is Rps 3000, approximately Euro 0,30.
