About this route

Late Saturday (post-10pm), the trip out of Sydney CBD costs around A$31.35, an extra A$6.16 above the daytime baseline.

Sydney CBD streets are dense with one-ways and bus lanes, which means a metered trip across town accumulates waiting-time charges as much as distance. Over 7.5 km the meter alternates between two rates: a per-kilometre charge while the cab is moving, and a per-minute waiting rate once it drops below the slow-speed threshold.

All fares quoted track the official schedule published by Transport for NSW (Point to Point Transport Commission); the day-rate midpoint from Sydney CBD sits at A$25.19.
