Canberra Free Rides End: November 27th Reminder

Canberra residents, mark your calendars! Free public transport rides in Canberra will end on November 27th, 2023. This means that you'll need to start paying for your bus, light rail, and ACTION buses again.

What does this mean for you?

• You'll need to purchase a myWay card or a single trip ticket again. You can reload your myWay card online, at retail outlets, or through the myWay app.
• You'll need to tap your myWay card or single trip ticket when boarding and exiting each bus or light rail.
• Fare prices will return to their previous rates.

Why did the free rides end?

The free rides program was a temporary initiative aimed at supporting Canberra residents during the COVID-19 pandemic. As the pandemic has subsided, the ACT government has decided to return to the traditional fare system.

What if you rely on public transport?

If you are a frequent public transport user, it's important to be prepared for the return of fares. Consider topping up your myWay card or purchasing a single trip ticket before November 27th to ensure a smooth transition. You can also find information on fare options and pricing on the ACTION website.

Don't get caught off guard!

Remember the date: November 27th, 2023. Free rides end, and regular fares will resume.

Stay informed and plan ahead. With a little preparation, you can avoid any surprises and continue to enjoy convenient and reliable public transport in Canberra.
