During this time, the maximum cost of Full Fare daily travel will go from $11.40 to $5.70, while concession fares will drop from $5.70 to $2.85, delivering immediate cost-of-living relief.
The discount is for travel on all trains, trams and buses; and regional trains, coaches and buses (including intertown and regional town bus services). It excludes SkyBus, ferries, and non-subsidised regional bus services.
Discounted travel is for everyone across Victoria, including concession holders (such as students and seniors), whose already discounted fares will be cut in half again.
To access the discount, passengers can continue to tap on as usual, and the fare will automatically calculate at half price.
Children and young people under 18 can continue to travel for free with their Youth myki, and seniors can continue to travel for free on weekends.
