The Yangon Region Transport Authority (YRTA) has invited the tender to install card system on Yangon Bus Service (YBS) buses, according to a report in the Myawady Daily yesterday.
YRTA has invited those interested entrepreneurs to submit tenders to install card system for Yangon Payment Service. The tenders have to present their projects to the selection committee on 15 August.
The winner of the tender will be assigned with three tasks— card issuing, card acquiring and cards top up agency.
Currently, YRTA has fixed the cash boxes to replace the bus conductor on YBS buses. But, the passengers are inconvenient because of scarcity of the small note. Therefore, Yangon Region government is making arrangements to install the card payment system.
Currently, YBS is operating with 2,600 including 1,000 which were bought by Yangon Region government.
