Public Transport



Melbourne's public transport system is easy to use and can get you just about anywhere in the city. It's fairly cheap and sometimes free, usually on time and all forms of transportation run quite regularly!

City Circle Tram

Above is a picture of the City Circle Tram,
which is free to all and takes you on a loop around the city.
I personally think that these trams are old fashioned and add to the culture of Melbourne City.
They look great and still run well, so why not still use them!

Trains
Melbourne's train system are also very well organised,
also very easy to use and have recently and continue to be updated to be even better.

Vline

The Vline system consists of buses coaches and trains that take you almost anywhere in Victoria and other states.

It's a cheaper and easy alternative to planes and makes accessing almost anywhere in Victoria easy and quick for everyone.
I love the Vline service and use it regularly.



Buses

There are over 500 bus routes through out melbourne, which means theres almost a bus for everwhere you are, which is very convenient.

The busses are nicely air conditioned, easy to get onto and are generally in good condition. They're usually on time, without busses i wouldn't be able to get around, so i am very thankful for this service.

Tickets

The Metcard ticketing system is very easy to use and quite affordable.

There are only 3 zones in Victorias public transport system and they are, Zone 1, Zone 2 and Country areas.
I love metcards and will be very sad when they are taken over by a different system.
