It was convenient for the Trams route in Melbourne to go anywhere.
In the city, the driveway was abolished and
the construction repaired on a footpath and
the road of only a tram was advancing.
Although there is no examination of tickets
usually, there is examination of tickets
unannounced. It seemed that therefore,
almost all users had a proper ticket and had
got on.
A fare is not so cheap as AU$3.1 (= 270
yen). However, a ticket is effective for
2 hours,and there is a ticket various type (such as a Sundaysaver ticket,
Weekly Full Fare ticket etc)
In addition to the tram, the ticket could be used also for CONEX railroad and
I thought that it was very convenient.
