Public Transport in Australia is very well organized and covers large areas of Australia. Public Transport may include buses, trains, ferries, trams or taxis.  At some stage during your stay in Australia, you will be required to use public transport, whether this is to get to and from your institution, when you go out on the weekend or when you travel around Australia.

Each state and territory has very useful websites about their public transport systems. We highly recommend visiting these websites to find out more about transport available in your city and how much it costs. These websites are also great because they often help you plan your trip, provide fare information and provide all timetable information.
