Paper tickets phased out in Amsterdam
Passengers using buses, trams and the metro in Amsterdam will have to travel using a public transport smart card, or ov-chipkaart, from Thursday.
The greater Amsterdam region is now the second area of the country to have stopped the use of paper tickets. Rotterdam made the change last year.
