Background

The card was sold from 1986 until its discontinuation in 1995.Pilot programs for a card that could work with all of the city's transport system started in October 2005 with the STC Metro for users that are exempted from paying to access the system. The first card that was available to the general public that served the all-in-one features was released on June 17, 2006.
Tarjeta Metrobús
