Metropolitan Intercity Railway Company will introduce QR tickets on the Tsukuba Express line starting October 1.
This will streamline the renewal and maintenance of ticket gates and related equipment, and also help reduce environmental impact by eliminating the need to separate the magnetic layer when recycling magnetic tickets.
In addition, sales of magnetic commuter passes and child coupon tickets will end on March 13, and all magnetic tickets will be discontinued on September 30. Magnetic interline commuter passes issued by other railway companies will remain usable by presenting them at the information counter. The operation of the transfer ticket gates to the Toei Oedo Line at Shin-Okachimachi Station will be revised, and all of these gates will be converted to IC card–only automatic ticket gates.
