The NSW government has launched a damages claim in the NSW Supreme Court against the company that was developing Sydney's integrated Tcard ticketing system.
Publicly announcing its counter-claim in the Supreme Court against the NSW government yesterday, ERG has highlighted lack of help from the Public Transport and Ticketing Corporation (PTTC) and alleged the termination of the contract was made for political reasons.
Tcard, or some variant of it, is again on the cards as the NSW government looks to its options for getting Sydney's electronic ticketing back on track.
ERG is filing its counter-claim in the Supreme Court today, seeking compensation for the cancellation of Sydney transport's cashless ticketing system, the Tcard.
South Australia is following NSW and Victoria down the path of cashless smartcard ticketing for public transport, with AU$29 million laid out in its budget over three years to kick start the system.
