5-year contract renewal follows the recent
implementation of a “Tap & Ride” payment option, allowing NJ
TRANSIT bus and light rail customers to use contactless credit and
debit cards
Similarly, in nearby Philadelphia, Conduent

subways and trolleys
Conduent Transportation, a global provider of smart mobility
technology solutions and business unit of Conduent Incorporated
(Nasdaq: CNDT), today announced it received a 5-year contract
renewal from NJ TRANSIT to continue implementation and upgrades of
a contactless fare collection system for customers. Under the new
contract, which builds on a relationship of more than 30 years with
NJ TRANSIT, Conduent will also provide maintenance of various
hardware and software systems, including ticket vending machines
and on-board validators.
Last fall, under the previous contract, Conduent implemented a
new “Tap & Ride” payment option for NJ TRANSIT, allowing New
Jersey bus and light rail customers to use contactless credit and
debit cards. The system is currently usable with existing
validators on buses and at light rail stations. Additional ticket
types, including Google and Apple payment options, are being made
available.
NJ TRANSIT is the nation’s largest statewide public
transportation system and third largest transit system. It provides
more than 925,000 weekday trips on 263 bus routes, three light rail
lines, 12 commuter rail lines and Access Link paratransit service.
It links major points in New Jersey, New York and Philadelphia.
“The convenience of digital, contactless payments is
transforming how we purchase, pay and get paid in every aspect of
our lives, and we’re excited to continue helping our clients extend
these benefits to their riders,” said Adam Appleby, President,
Transportation Solutions at Conduent. “As an industry leader in
transportation technologies and innovation, we’re proud to help
make mobility easier, more efficient and more enjoyable for transit
agencies and their customers worldwide.”
SEPTA Contactless Payments
In nearby Philadelphia, under a separate contract, Conduent also
recently implemented for SEPTA (the Southeastern Pennsylvania
Transportation Authority) contactless payment options on transit,
including buses, subways and trolleys. Customers can now easily tap
their credit and debit cards or use mobile payment apps such as
Apple Pay or Google Pay at turnstiles and fare boxes. These
capabilities will be extended to all SEPTA modes when they launch
on Regional Rail lines in 2024.
SEPTA is one of the largest transit systems in the country,
serving five counties in the Greater Philadelphia area and
connecting to Delaware and New Jersey transit systems. It operates
across six transportation modes and has 2,800 vehicles in service,
285 subway and rail stations, plus 13,000 bus and trolley
