Bielsko-Biała introduces new bus ticket features and QR codes

The Municipal Transport Company (MZK) in Bielsko-Biała has introduced several technological upgrades to its bus fleet to improve passenger convenience and accessibility.

In newer vehicles (fleet numbers 233 and above), ticket validators now feature an updated interface that displays the line number, direction of travel, and upcoming stops. To improve accessibility, the validators include a high-contrast mode for passengers with visual impairments or for use in varying lighting conditions. A new “Contact” button also provides direct access to the Municipal Communication Department and MZK.

Additionally, passengers using mobile applications such as moBiLET and SkyCash can now purchase mobile tickets more easily. Instead of manually entering the vehicle's fleet number, passengers can simply scan a QR code located on a sticker near the entrance doors. This QR code system is being rolled out across the fleet, though manual entry remains an available option.
