Brand New Ticket Machines for BTS!

We’re thrilled to announce that Blackpool Transport has upgraded 110 of our ticket machines to the cutting-edge TK300 model, provided by the industry-leading smart ticketing company, Ticketer! 

The new TK300 machines bring fantastic improvements, including faster load times (no more waiting for your card!), upgraded card readers, and a sleek new driver console designed for smoother operations. These enhancements mean quicker and more efficient journeys for our passengers, with even more safety and ease for our drivers. Plus, the improved connectivity will allow us to stay better connected with our depots, ensuring everything runs smoothly.

Our Financial and Commercial Director, James Clough, said “The introduction of the latest Ticketer machines is part of our ongoing digital strategy to invest in our technology for the benefit of our colleagues and customers. We’re looking forward to benefitting from the enhanced features to increase productivity for our drivers and provide a better user experience, whilst maintaining a streamlined boarding experience for our customers”.
