Regarding the process, first, the train passenger scans the ticket code on paper or on the phone screen into the ticket gate reader. The ticket gate sends the decoded information from the QRCode to the railway's verification software to check its validity. If the ticket is valid, the gate will automatically open the latch for a person to pass.
If the ticket is invalid, the gate will not open and the passenger will be notified of the status via LED and sound. In case the ticket is valid but the automatic ticket control gate does not open; the railway staff will directly use the issued Code to forcefully open the gate when the system fails or has a problem.
At the automatic ticket gates, VNR arranges staff on duty to support and guide passengers when using automatic ticket checking and to support passengers who are elderly, disabled, pregnant women who need to carry luggage, push wheelchairs within the station...
Organizing access control at stations aims to ensure security and order, create a civilized and friendly environment at stations, strictly control goods and limit bad elements and street vendors from entering the station to board trains, ensure order, safety and security on trains and at stations; especially to strengthen security, order and safety of passengers during the 2018 Lunar New Year.
