Traveling in Melbourne
Getting around Melbourne on public transport is simple, cheap and reliable. All our SHA offices and rental apartment buildings are close to public transport making life easy for students.
The Melbourne public transport system is known as Metlink and consists of trams, trains and buses. Our tram service covers the central city and inner suburbs, trains service the city and the suburbs, and buses go where there are no tram or train tracks. There are connections to most of the major attractions of our city, so it is quite possible to spend time in Melbourne without a car.
Myki is your reusable travel card for trains, trams and buses in Melbourne and regional Victorian centers.
Top up your card online or in person, before your journey and then touch on and touch off at a Myki reader as you travel.
