Fare Zones
The current zonal fare system in the Tweed & Tweed Coast districts will continue to operate. You will still buy your ticket the same way as you do now – by asking for a ticket by destination. The driver will then calculate your fare.
Ticket Types
Single: One-way ticket to reach your destination, including transfers within 2 hours of ticket purchase.
Daily: Unlimited travel within the zones printed on the ticket, until the last service scheduled on the day of issue.
Off-peak Daily: Discounted unlimited travel between *9.00am & *3.30pm and after *7.00pm weekdays, all day on weekends and public holidays.
Weekly: Unlimited travel within the zones printed on the ticket, for one week from the day of issue (7 consecutive days).
NSW Fares
Fares are calculated on the number of zones you use on your journey. To calculate your fare look at the number
of zones travelled through to reach your destination, then refer to the table below to calculate the cost of your trip. Note, prices shown are the adult fare, concessions are half the adult fare.
