The South Australian state government late last week called for companies to express their interest in building its planned new public transport ticketing system.
The introduction of a new public transport smartcard for Melbourne will cost more than AU$1 billion, and is running 15 months behind schedule according to a report, but the Victorian government will persist with the project.
South Australia is following NSW and Victoria down the path of cashless smartcard ticketing for public transport, with AU$29 million laid out in its budget over three years to kick start the system.
The consortium that is slowly delivering the troubled myki public transport smartcard has been paid $20 million this year by the Victorian government, documents have revealed.
The main public servant in charge of Victoria's troubled myki public ticketing project is married to the auditor who was in charge of probity on the project's $1.3 billion contract, it emerged today.
