Yearly Tickets

Page last modified/checked: Monday, July 18, 2005

Multi-modal yearly tickets had been part of the previous Neighbourhood fare system and known as the 12 monthly "Commuter Pass". They were replaced from the 1st September 1989 with zonal yearly tickets which continued to expire at the end of each month. From the 27th May 1991, yearly tickets could be issued at any time with a flexible expiry date 365 days in advance.

New conditions for Weekly, Monthly and Yearly Metcards were announced in a media release dated the 16th March 2005 from Metlink Chief Executive Officer, Mr Bernie Carolan. Quoting from the metlink site:
"Weekly Metcards validated for the first time after 3pm will now be valid for seven days inclusive of the date the ticket is first used. Therefore regardless of what time the ticket is first validated, Weekly Metcards will be valid for seven days. This change removes an anomaly which previously allowed travel on a Weekly Metcard (validated after 3pm) for up to eight days. Similarly, Monthly and Yearly Metcards validated after 3pm will be valid for one calendar month and one calendar year respectively. This change will be rolled out by Friday 25 March."
