Daily fare cap

Fare cap is the maximum amount you will pay in a day no matter how long you travel or how many trips you take.

Once you hit the daily fare cap, travel is free for the rest of the day.

Public transport is half price until 1 January 2027, and the prices below reflect this discount.
 

  • Weekday cap: $5.70 full fare | $2.85 concession
  • Weekend cap: $4.00 full fare | $2.00 concession | Seniors free
     

Until you reach the cap, how much you pay depends on how far you travel.
