Barcode readers move AGA closer to paperless system

Barcode readers have been installed at ticket gates at Abellio Greater Anglia stations, in a £3 million scheme. Passengers can now buy and receive most of AGA’s tickets straight to their phones via a mobile app, and scan them through the recently installed readers at ticket barriers. AGA said this will reduce ticket office queues, and moves the operator a step closer to eliminating paper tickets. A new ticket validation database and inspection app provided by Masabi has been installed.
