Myth or legit: you can ride Tasmania's Metro buses free until 30 June 2027.

Answer: Legit

Legit. Metro says you don't need a fare or GreenCard on Tasmanian public transport until 30 June 2027.

It's a free travel period, so simply hop aboard: no GreenCard tap needed. Riding after 30 June 2027? Check Metro first, and have a GreenCard with credit or cash ready.
