It only takes $2 to be a Real Mate. Get home safely on New Year’s Eve with MAIB Nightrider!

Thanks to the Motor Accidents Insurance Board (MAIB), Metro will operate late night services in Hobart, Launceston and Burnie this NYE. With $2 flat fares from 6pm, be a real mate and ensure you and your crew make the right transport choice to get home safely.

Nightrider services are in addition to a regular Sunday timetable in Hobart and Launceston that will operate on 31 December 2017. In Burnie, as only Hospital Link timetables operate on a Sunday, special Nightrider services will begin from 3pm (normal fares will apply until 6pm).

$2 flat fares are available as cash fares only. Passengers using Greencard will be required to pay the normal fare. Students tickets will be available at the normal fare.
