How we create content
We synthesise publicly available operational facts from Adelaide Metro and South Australian public sources, cross-check stop and place names against known Adelaide geography, and link you to official sources for live times, free-zone maps and fares. We do not invent prices, free-zone boundaries, or next-service times. Free travel is only described in general terms; always confirm the current free tram zone map before you ride.
Primary sources we point you to:
- Adelaide Metro External official site
- Tickets & metroCARD External official site
- Free tram zone information External official site
- Service updates External official site
We do not publish dollar fares or claim official free-zone maps. Free zones are summarised in plain language with links to Adelaide Metro for the current rules.
Why this site exists
Help people ride the classic city-to-beach tram with confidence (free zones, map, metroCARD, itineraries) while funding the guide through clearly disclosed ads and affiliates—information first.
Commercial relationships (AdSense, Booking.com, GetYourGuide, Amazon) are disclosed on the affiliate disclosure page and beside relevant modules.
Photos & images
The publisher cannot photograph the corridor on demand. This site uses real photographs under Creative Commons licences (for example from Wikimedia Commons), with photographer credit and licence link on each figure—documentary proof of real places and vehicles. We do not present AI art as photos of the line. Schematic maps are drawn in code so stop names stay accurate.
