Free Public Transport In Melbourne For Christmas

1:30PM December 23, 2008 | Angus Kidman

Melbourne residents have no excuse not to use public transport over the next couple of days, with fare-free travel on trains, trams and buses on December 24 and 25. I couldn’t find any similar offers in the other capitals, but if you’ve spotted a cheap means of Christmas transport, share it in the comments. Photo by Yarra Trams

Article title incorrect (body correct), it’s Christmas Eve/Day not Boxing day.

Also New Year’s Eve (Dec 31) is free PT.

Canberra’s bus network, ACTION Busses are offering free transport on Christmas Day,

Routes are very limited, however.

D’oh! Sorry about that folks. The body of the article was right, but that’s no excuse for the wrong headline.
