About this route
Richmond after 10pm on Saturday: the meter steps up to A$18.10, an uplift of A$2.20 on the day-rate equivalent.
The Melbourne CBD pickup zone runs from Flinders Street up to Victoria Street and across to Spencer Street. Treat the A$15.90 midpoint from Melbourne CBD to Richmond as a regulated maximum, not a quote: traffic delays only raise the bill if they push the meter through the slow-speed threshold. Commercial Passenger Vehicles Victoria (CPVV) sets the metered ceiling reflected here — about A$15.90 on the day rate for the trip into Richmond.
