Get around Adelaide by bus, train and tram

You must validate your metroCARD every time you get on a bus, train or tram or when you enter or exit barrier gates at selected stations.

To validate your metroCARD, hold it in front of the validator, or the mark on barrier gates, and wait for the solid green light and/or high-pitched sound that tells you it has worked.

You don’t need to validate your metroCARD when you leave a vehicle.
