To provide a system that collects commute information via a contactless IC tag carried by a kindergartner or schoolchild and delivers the collection result to a requester.
The system has the contactless IC tag with an antenna carried by a person to be picked up, a gate device with transmitting/receiving means mounted on a pickup bus, a station device with transmitting/receiving means installed at a station for the pickup bus, and a commute information collection apparatus with transmitting/receiving means for collecting commute information. The contactless IC tag records an ID code of the person to be picked up. The gate device reads a station code from the station device at the station the bus stops, reads the ID code of the person to be picked up from the contactless IC tag, and records them in a recording part of the gate device along with time information read in. The commute information collection apparatus collects via the transmitting/receiving means the ID code of the person to be picked up, the station code and the read time information recorded in the gate device, as commute information.
