Athens Public Transport Organization

The lingering problems plaguing commuters on the capital's metro system following the introduction of e-ticketing appear to have put authorities off activating electronic barriers across the network.

The Athens Public Transport Organization (OASA) on Tuesday announced a buy-10-get-one-free deal for its paper tickets in a bid to boost sales. The offer is valid for regular 1.40-euro tickets and discounted 0.60-cent tickets.

The ongoing saga over the introduction of an electronic ticketing system for Athens public transport is set to continue with more delays in its implementation.
