The inclusion of Stansted Airport's railway station in the Project Oval expansion reflects growing passenger demand for contactless travel payment options across the southeast.
In 2019, approximately 16,000 individuals were penalized for traveling without paper tickets at Stansted Airport station, highlighting the need for convenient contactless options.
The Department for Transport has confirmed the inclusion of multiple railway stations, including Stansted, in the upcoming rollout of modern contactless payment systems.
Project Oval's £27 million initiative aims to make 230 railway stations across the southeast accessible for bank card contactless payments, excluding older Oyster technology.
