卡斯珀的公共交通系统通过新的票价系统迎接数字时代

卡斯珀地区交通公司将在未来一个半月内为其门到门和固定路线服务实施新的电子票价系统，从当前的 ASSIST 和 LINK 系统分别过渡到 E-Pass 和 Scan Pass。新系统旨在提高客户便利性，消除费用，实现准确的数据收集，并解决票价丢失和实体机票需求等问题。

Casper Area Transit Embraces Digital Revolution with New Electronic Fare System

卡斯珀地区交通通过新的电子收费系统拥抱数字革命

Casper, Wyoming - Casper Area Transit (CAT) is poised to revolutionize its fare collection system, introducing a state-of-the-art electronic fare system that will enhance convenience, efficiency, and data accuracy for its valued customers. This transformative initiative, approved by the Casper City Council last fall, is set to roll out over the next month and a half, heralding a new era of seamless transit experiences.

怀俄明州卡斯珀 - 卡斯珀地区交通 (CAT) 准备彻底改变其收费系统，引入最先进的电子收费系统，为其尊贵的客户提高便利性、效率和数据准确性。这项变革性举措于去年秋天获得了卡斯珀市议会的批准，预计将在接下来的一个半月内推出，预示着无缝交通体验的新时代的到来。

The current ASSIST door-to-door service ticket and LINK fixed-route service token will be replaced by the cutting-edge E-Pass and Scan Pass, respectively. This technological upgrade promises a wealth of benefits for CAT patrons.

目前的 ASSIST 上门服务票证和 LINK 固定路线服务令牌将分别由尖端的 E-Pass 和 Scan Pass 取代。此次技术升级将为 CAT 用户带来大量好处。

Eliminating Lost Fare Woes:

消除票价损失问题：

One of the most significant advantages of the electronic fare system is its ability to safeguard against lost fares. In the past, if a rider lost their fare or it was stolen, there was no recourse to recover the lost value. However, with the E-Pass and Scan Pass, customers can rest assured that their fares are secure. In the event of a lost Scan Pass, customers can simply notify the Transit office, and the remaining fares will be transferred to a new pass, ensuring peace of mind and uninterrupted transit access.

电子票价系统最显着的优势之一是它能够防止票价丢失。过去，如果乘客丢失车费或被盗，则无法追回损失的价值。然而，有了 E-Pass 和 Scan Pass，客户可以放心，他们的票价是安全的。如果扫描通行证丢失，客户只需通知交通办公室，剩余的票价将转移到新通行证上，确保安心和不间断的交通通行。

Greater Flexibility and Convenience:

更大的灵活性和便利性：

The new fare system introduces greater flexibility for monthly pass holders. Currently, Transit offers month passes that are only valid for the current month. With the Scan Pass, riders will enjoy the convenience of 30-day passes that are effective from the purchase date. Moreover, riders can purchase multiple 30-day passes, eliminating the need for frequent visits to the Transit office.

新的票价系统为月票持有者带来了更大的灵活性。目前，Transit 提供仅当月有效的月票。凭借 Scan Pass，乘客将享受 30 天通行证的便利，该通行证自购买之日起生效。此外，乘客可以购买多张 30 天的通行证，从而无需频繁前往交通办公室。

For ASSIST riders, the E-Pass eliminates the need to carry a physical pass, reducing the risk of loss or theft. It also streamlines the process of using the service, as caregivers no longer need to pass tickets to the rider and then to the driver.

对于 ASSIST 乘客来说，电子通行证无需携带实体通行证，从而降低了丢失或被盗的风险。它还简化了使用该服务的流程，因为护理人员不再需要将票传给乘客，然后再传给司机。

Enhanced Data Collection for Improved Planning:

增强数据收集以改进规划：

The electronic fare system will also enable more accurate data collection, a requirement of the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) for federal funding purposes. This data will provide valuable insights into passenger usage patterns, allowing CAT to optimize its services and meet the evolving needs of the community.

电子票价系统还将实现更准确的数据收集，这是联邦运输管理局 (FTA) 出于联邦资助目的的要求。这些数据将为乘客使用模式提供有价值的见解，使 CAT 能够优化其服务并满足社区不断变化的需求。

Smooth Transition Plan:

平稳过渡计划：

To ensure a seamless transition, CAT will gradually phase out the use of paper tickets and tokens. For ASSIST, paper tickets will no longer be issued after Friday, May 31, and will no longer be accepted after that date. For LINK, the transition to the Scan Pass will commence on Monday, July 1, with current LINK tokens being accepted through Wednesday, July 31.

为了确保无缝过渡，CAT 将逐步淘汰纸质门票和代币的使用。对于 ASSIST，5 月 31 日星期五之后将不再签发纸质门票，该日期之后也不再接受纸质门票。对于 LINK，向 Scan Pass 的过渡将于 7 月 1 日星期一开始，当前的 LINK 代币将在 7 月 31 日星期三之前接受。

Customers are encouraged to transfer any outstanding ASSIST tickets or LINK tokens to their E-Pass or Scan Pass by turning them in, along with proof of purchase, to the Casper Area Transit office. CAT will grant credit for these outstanding fares only until June 30 for ASSIST tickets and until August 31 for LINK tokens.

我们鼓励客户将任何未结清的 ASSIST 票证或 LINK 代币连同购买证明一起交给卡斯珀地区交通办公室，将其转入其 E-Pass 或 Scan Pass。 CAT 将仅在 6 月 30 日之前为 ASSIST 机票提供积分，对于 8 月 31 日为 LINK 代币提供积分。

Embracing Technological Advancements:

拥抱技术进步：

This electronic fare system is a testament to CAT's commitment to embracing technological advancements that enhance the customer experience. It aligns with the Casper Area Metropolitan Planning Organization's (CAMPO) mission to identify and implement projects and programs that promote efficient and accessible transportation solutions for the Casper metropolitan area.

该电子票价系统证明了 CAT 致力于采用技术进步来增强客户体验。它与卡斯珀地区大都会规划组织 (CAMPO) 的使命相一致，即确定和实施项目和计划，以促进卡斯珀大都市区高效、便捷的交通解决方案。
