Current Ticketing
The myki smartcard system was introduced on four Geelong bus routes in December 2008, and on 2 March 2009 all bus routes in Geelong and the Bellarine Peninsula were completely switched to myki, with all the old fare equipment being removed. V/Line paper tickets continue to be valid on buses until such time as they are replaced by myki as part of the projected state-wide rollout. The pre-printed ticket issued at V/Line railway stations for use within the GTS area continues in use as a short-term ticket for those rail passengers who don't use a myki card.

Famous quotes containing the word current:
“It is a quite remarkable fact that the great religions of the most civilized peoples are more deeply fraught with sadness than the simpler beliefs of earlier societies. This certainly does not mean that the current of pessimism is eventually to submerge the other, but it proves that it does not lose ground and that it does not seem destined to disappear.”
—Emile Durkheim (1858–1917)
