The Mass Rapid Transit Authority (MRTA) board has approved a fare cut for the MRT's Purple Line so passengers will pay a maximum fare of 20 baht per trip starting on Dec 1.

However, the new fare will be applicable to passengers who pay the fare with credit cards with a contactless payment system only, said MRTA governor Pakapong Sirikantaramas.

He said those who use other cards, such as prepaid cards or a one-day pass, or pay the train fare with cash are not eligible for the reduction.
