Do not get rid of the conductors[1] and make it part of their duties to
observe that everyone boarding via the middle or rear door touches in
and the green light shows.

Bit difficult to do with a paper ticket!

(I recall a bendy bus driver deciding he didn't like the look of someone
who had got on at the middle door and hadn't touched in. He said
something over the PA, and the slightly befuddled passenger walked up to
the front and showed the driver his paper Travelcard.)
