The work has involved the design, manufacture, installation, software development, and testing of the AFC (Automatic Fare Collection) system for the 35 stations on the two monorail lines, East of Nile (EON) and West of Nile (WON), including over 400 automatic access faregates and more than 100 automatic vending machines, over 60 portable inspection units, and the equipment for the 35 ticket offices.
Indra’s contactless technology will facilitate the transport of up to 45,000 passengers per hour in each direction. This network will serve the 22 million-plus people living in the metropolitan area of the Egyptian capital known as ‘Greater Cairo’.
