MyZone Ticket Launched in Sydney

The controversial MyZone of the NSW Government will be tested today. It introduces a new fare structures on trains, ferries, and public and private buses for travelers in and around greater Sydney, the Central Coast, the Hunter and the Illawarra.

Nine out of 10 fares are the same or cheaper under the new MyZone, although some ferry trips will cost more.  You can view the fare comparison at the MyZone website.  Are you saving some bucks or did it cost more out of your pocket? 

One of basic features of MyZone is that the number of Sydney travel zones has been reduced from 20 to just five. Commuters have the option of buying MyBus, MyTrain and MyFerry tickets, or a MyMulti ticket which lets them to travel on all three modes of transport.
