Sangi Railway to Implement IC Cards on Hokusei Line from March 1

Sangi Railway will enable the use of transportation IC cards on the Hokusei Line starting March 1.

Passengers can enter and exit through IC gates installed at each station by touching a nationally interoperable transportation IC card during boarding and alighting. The post-pay function of PiTaPa cannot be used. ICOCA cards and ICOCA commuter passes will be available at manned station windows (Nishi-Kuwana, Hoshikawa, Toin, Sobara, Ageki stations).

The ICOCA web commuter pass service “iCONPASS” will be introduced. By registering ICOCA ID information on the website, commuter passes and one-day passes can be purchased without going to the station. Sales began at 10:00 AM on January 15.

In addition, a discounted prepaid card service for persons with physical and intellectual disabilities will begin on the same day.
