Travel FREE in Hobart before 7am

 

Avoid congestion associated with the busy return to school period and TRAVEL FREE before 7am on all Hobart urban Metro services from Monday 29 January to Friday 23 February 2018.


Did you know each bus has the potential to take up to 60 cars off the road? Join us to experience a commute without the hassles of traffic congestion, concentrating on the busy road, or finding and paying for a parking space.

When you switch to travelling on an early morning bus, you can enjoy a more comfortable on board experience while contributing to reduced peak hour congestion. Spend your commute relaxing, being productive, or catching up on entertainment – all for free.

While not everyone’s travel needs are flexible, reducing congestion will benefit both Metro’s service reliability and Hobart’s road network. From public transport to flexible working hours, active transport, or carpooling – try something different, even one day a week!
