Metropolitan zones
Melbourne's public transport network is divided into two main fare zones.
The type of ticket or myki you travel with depends on which zones you travel in.
Metcards and myki are available for travel in the individual zones or both.
Check which zones your journey covers before selecting a ticket to ensure it covers your entire journey.
For example, travelling to Belgrave Station (Zone 2) from the city (Zone 1) will require a Zone 1+2 ticket.
Zone 1, Zone 2 and zone boundary overlap

When travelling in a zone boundary overlap, passengers can travel with a ticket valid for either zone. |
Travelling with the right ticket
Tickets need to be valid for each zone travelled in, however, when travelling in a zone boundary overlap, the ticket can be valid for either zone.
See Metcard or myki to work out which ticket suits your travel.
When you plan a trip using the journey planner your trip plan will tell you which zone/s you will be travelling in.
