TRAM TICKETS

476 Mr HANNA (Mitchell) (19 May 2009). Why is it not made clear to city tram commuters (including international visitors) that there is no need to validate a ticket on trips between Victoria Square and North Terrace?

The Hon. P.F. CONLON (Elder—Minister for Transport, Minister for Infrastructure, Minister for Energy): I am advised as follows:

The information for commuters regarding free travel through the Adelaide Central Business District (CBD) from South Terrace to City West is widely displayed.

The tram route maps and timetables displayed on tram stop shelters within the CBD, as well as those in trams, show free travel for the sector. This information is also prominently displayed on the front of all tram timetables. Information regarding free travel on the tram from South Terrace to City West is also available on the Adelaide Metro website and on page 4 of the Adelaide Metro Tourist Guide.
