Transport operators and regional authorities should be encouraged to use contactless EMV to overcome fragmented legacy ticketing infrastructures and meet changing passenger demands, argues Unicard’s Commercial and Product Director Alex Sbardella in a new article for urban public transport publication Intelligent Transport.   However, he says, whilst we are on the cusp of a once-in-a-decade opportunity to introduce the systems that deliver better passenger and operator outcomes, the UK currently lacks the standards and best practices needed for interoperable cEMV. This has already resulted in self-serving practices by suppliers attempting to capitalise on current opportunities without consideration for passengers or industry cooperation across providers.   Both vendors and procuring bodies should be seeking a situation where suppliers are free to develop their own solutions and standards, but do so in co-operation with the wider industry, where ideally an independent body oversees the very best interests of everyone involved.   The full report is available for free download from Intelligent Transport here: https://lnkd.in/ePhmufJX
