Perth Transportation Tips by mad4travel

'Mode': AROUND
Category: Bus
Getting TO/AROUND: Both of Perth’s central bus stations, as well as the local train stations one stop on either side of the main train station, are within the Free Transit Zone, or FTZ. Most buses passing through the FTZ offer free travel within it, as do the snazzy “CAT” (Central Area Transit) buses serving the city centre.

You can board the buses at special CAT stops to take you along two circular CAT routes; press a button and a voice tells you when the next bus is due. The Blue CAT runs north–south from Barrack Street jetty up to Aberdeen Street and then down William Street back to the river, while the Red CAT runs east–west along George Terrace and back along Wellington Street.

Both routes run from Monday to Thursday 7am–6pm, Friday 7am–1am, Saturday 8.30am–1am and Sunday 10am–5pm, with intervals of ten minutes at the most. Timetables are available from Transperth offices.
