Adelaide Metro

Got a Seniors Card?

On buses

When you board the bus, show the driver your Seniors Card and you’ll be issued with a green ticket. Place the ticket into the validating machine with arrows facing up and pointing forwards.

When you board the train or tram, make sure you have your Seniors Card ready to show the Passenger Service Assistant or Conductor onboard. You do not need a ticket.

To enter or exit Adelaide Railway Station you must show your Seniors Card at the staffed gates adjacent to Platform 1.

For travel before 9.01 am and after 3 pm weekdays, Seniors require a valid ticket. Tickets can be purchased from the bus driver, the tram conductor, at Adelaide Railway Station, or from the ticket vending machine onboard the train.

ALWAYS remember

to travel with your valid Seniors Card
your first journey / validation must commence AFTER 9.01 am on weekdays
your last journey / validation must commence BEFORE 3 pm on weekdays
