Paying for rides on SRT red line


Recommended Posts

Posted

Amazingly, I could not find the answer to this simple question online:

 

To ride the SRT red line (Bang Sue to Taling Chan), can I pay with either my MRT fare card or my BTS (Rabbit) fare card?

Thanks.

As explained in this article 

Common ticketing between Blue, Purple and Red will pilot this month. When this is in operation your MRT card will allow fare payment for travel on and between these three lines.

 

Initially I expect Red Line to have separate ticketing until the pilot is actually working.

 

BTS Green Line (Rabbit) is not included in these arrangements as it is a private company and the others are Government owned  and run. Negotiations to include Green have not been finalized, as far as I know.

No you currently can't. Later, yes with MRT card (though this was first promised in 2012 between the MRT Blue line and ARL so don't expect it too soon)

 

The SRT Red lines uses the same ticketing platform as the ARL does.

You'll have better luck paying with contactless (Visa/Mastercard EMV) already accepted at both MRT blue (Purple yet too?) and Red Lines as well as busses
