The New Zealand Transport Agency again pushed back the launch of its planned nationwide ticketing system, and some industry observers believe that the government will soon agree to a major reset of the project timelines and deliverables, if it hasn’t already.
The national agency last week announced that the project would not even be able to launch in the first small city and town in the Canterbury region, on New Zealand’s South Island, which was to be the first of four “regions” to get the so-called “National Ticketing Solution.”
