The most common way to have your school ticket is on a school card, but some school tickets are on paper. You can scan your school card in the ticket machine, while you need to show a paper ticket to the driver.
Information about school tickets
Travel with city bus in Örebro or Citylinjen
On our city buses in Örebro, you can scan your school card either with the driver or at the ticket reader inside the bus. If you are travelling with Citylinjen, you can board through any door and scan your school card there.
If you want to scan your ticket with the driver, hold your school card against the reader on top of the ticket machine. Hold it there until you see a message on the ticket reader saying that the ticket is approved. You will also hear a beep when the ticket is approved. You do not need to inform the driver or press anything before scanning your ticket.
If you want to scan your already purchased ticket at the ticket reader inside the bus, you need to hold your travel card against the reader on the lower part of the ticket reader. You do not need to press anything before scanning the ticket. Keep the card held against the reader until you see a happy face on the screen. This means the scan is approved.
If you are travelling with a temporary School card senior or a prao ticket, you need to show the ticket to the driver. These two types of tickets are on paper, and you must present the ticket each time you board.
