Transport Canberra—MyWay card
(Question No 3268)

Mrs Kikkert asked the Minister for Transport, upon notice, on 14 August 2020:

(1) How many MyWay ticket vending machines are installed at the town centres of (a) Tuggeranong, (b) Woden, (c) Civic, (d) Belconnen and (e) Gungahlin and what was the cost for each installation.

(2) What is the total and breakdown of costs for maintenance of one ticket vending machine.

Mr Steel: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:

(1) The number of MyWay ticket vending machines installed at town centres is as follows:

a) Tuggeranong – one;

b) Woden – one;

c) Civic – three (including two at the Alinga Street Light Rail stop);

d) Belconnen – one; and

e) Gungahlin – two (including one at the Gungahlin Place Light Rail stop).

The cost of installation for each ticketing vending machine was between $85,681 and $90,681, depending on the nature of individual requirements at each location. These costs cannot be accurately disaggregated for each individual unit, due to the way these assets have been procured.

(2) The ongoing annual cost of maintenance of these eight ticket vending machines is $131,280.31. This cost cannot be accurately disaggregated for each individual unit, due to the way this service has been procured.
