The Service

A service between east and west Civic is intended to meet the needs of both visitors and local travellers. This service would operate with a frequency of at least 10 minutes. Additional trams would run on both the National Museum of Australia and the Australian War Memorial lines. Through services between the National Museum and the War Memorial are expected to operate on a 10 or 15-minute frequency, or half hourly during periods of low demand.

'Eating on board' is likely to be a feature of the line. One or more trams would be equipped to serve meals ranging from snacks to a full restaurant menu.

Ticketing

The planned ticketing approach will meet two potential markets.

Tourism market: an all day travel pass costing a proposed $10.00 (plus GST) will allow unlimited use of the tram system. Innovative ticketing would combine tram travel with access to parking areas and entry to attractions along the route. Tickets would be sold from a wide variety of outlets, including hotels.

Commuter market: a commuter fare is planned allowing single trip travel. This would be $2.00 for adults or $1.00 for children, and would be collected on entry to the tram.

This Brisbane 'Phoenix' tram built in 1963, ran for less then six years before closure of the Brisbane tramway system.
