About this route
Newtown after 10pm on Saturday: the meter steps up to A$23.85, an uplift of A$4.96 on the day-rate equivalent.
The Sydney CBD pickup zone runs roughly from Central Station up to The Rocks and out to Darling Harbour. Treat the A$18.89 midpoint from Sydney CBD to Newtown as a regulated maximum, not a quote: traffic delays only raise the bill if they push the meter through the slow-speed threshold. The figures here mirror the regulated maximum from Transport for NSW (Point to Point Transport Commission) — drivers may charge less than the A$18.89 typical between Sydney CBD and Newtown, never more.
