"We could have a smart-card system here in Melbourne," said Simon Vinson, general manager of OneLink, the company behind Melbourne's poorly performing ticket system.

Mr Vinson said OneLink was "as keen as mustard" to implement smart-card technology.
"There's a substantial amount of work involved. It would take a period of 18 months to introduce," he said.
But an inability by the State Government and Melbourne's public transport companies to reach a consensus on system features was delaying its implementation in Victoria, Mr Vinson said.
He added that there was no contractual impediment to installing a smart-card system here. "The system is quite capable of an upgrade and there are various provisions in the contract which contemplate that the system would be upgraded over time," he said. Source: The Age
