CTA and Pace Announce New Fare Payment System Ventra
New fare payment system will provide riders greater convenience and flexibility
Cubic will begin installing the new Ventra fare machines at rail stations this October, along with new touch-pads on buses and at turnstiles. The fare machines and touch-pads will not be operational until the system's pilot testing in spring 2013.
Ventra will be available to all customers in summer 2013. At this time, both new and existing fare media will be accepted. In 2014, all CTA and Pace fare media, including the Chicago Card and Chicago Card Plus, will be replaced with Ventra.
There will be comprehensive public outreach and education campaigns to ensure a smooth transition to this modern and convenient new fare payment system.
