Metrolink installs new state-of-the-art ticket machines

Metrolink announced that it has installed 133 new ticket machines at its stations across Southern California. The new ticket machines replace older models, some of which were 25 years old and prone to mechanical issues.

Featuring voice-enabled technology, a headphone jack, and braille keypads, the new machines comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. “The introduction of our new ticket machines with accessibility features comes just as the nation commemorates the 30th anniversary of the signing of ADA on July 26, 1990,” said Metrolink Board Chair Brian Humphrey.

The new state-of-the-art ticket machines installed at 62 stations throughout Metrolink’s 538-mile system will help save Metrolink more than $2 million in operating and maintenance costs annually. 

Customers can pay for tickets using cash, credit and debit cards, and promotional codes. Customers will soon be able to pay for tickets using transit vouchers, as well as touchless options through Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, and Google Pay.
