  TIB699S have been fitted with a new gen EZ-Link Card Reader and Driver Console (black colour)

   

  From observation, the reader features LCD screen.

   

  LTA staff on board the bus. Could be in-line with the implementation of the new ez-link fare system.

   

  Currently at Bukit Batok Int doing testing.

  No wonder I find the bus making an odd appearance with people inside the bus all squeezing near the entrance when I saw TIB699S on the way to BBT Int ... ...

  Card validator looks almost exactly like the one you mentioned, same goes to the computer. I can say that we shall look forward for a more IT-savvy transport system in Singapore.

  IT Savvy for wat seriously if it's too expensive. End of e day, we're e ones paying for it.

  IT Savvy but not user friendly, see e single trip ticket.

  I think they should reject this new EZ-Link Card Readers for buses, including trial. We already have blue EZ-Link card reader, and can upgrade at any fare changing time.

  But I think it is time for a new look barh? Look at what SBS Transit did to the Blue EZ-Link card reader, it is now in red/purple style...
