Travelling on light rail with a concession fare?

Most MyWay+ concession entitlements will expire on 30 June 2026. This applies to all concession travellers (excluding ACT Seniors)

The easiest way to stay on a concession fare is to set up a MyWay+ account, link your existing MyWay+ travel card and register your concession.

Remember to tap on and tap off every journey to get the full benefit of reduced fare caps and free travel once your monthly cap is reached.

There will be no light rail services from the first service on Saturday 4 July to the last service on Sunday 5 July 2026 due to critical construction works for Light Rail Stage 2A.

🚌Rail replacement buses will be operating in both directions along the entire light rail corridor between Alinga Street and Gungahlin Place during this time.

🚶There are no impacts to regular bus services or diversions in the City for the duration of the works, with buses still able to cross Northbourne Avenue at Alinga Street. There are no changes to the City Interchange or to the platform layout for the duration of the works. However, customers are encouraged to allow extra time to travel during this period.
