Zones
The zones you travel through determine the fare you pay. Zones only apply to myki fares. Fares are capped across the network, so once your fare has met the cap, you won’t be charged more regardless of where you travel. Learn more about the regional fare cap.
Metropolitan zones
Metropolitan zones determine the myki fares for metropolitan train, trams and buses. Metropolitan zones include:
- Free Tram Zone (applies to tram only)
- Zone 1

To find out which zone your stop or station is in, visit the Departures page for your location.

Regional zones
Regional zones determine the myki fares for regional trains and buses. Regional zones include:

- Zones 3 to 15/16
