There's a very good reason (beyond sentiment) that it shouldn't: one of the advantages of these smartcards is that they can be used for a lot more than just ticketing.Norman wrote:Our card will probably be called the Adelaide Ticket Card.
How about the Cuttlefish Card?

I should fork out for a Melway just to work out which tram to catch for one trip?Somebody wrote:Buy a Melway, it's valuable for many more reasons tooNathan wrote:I was actually quite annoyed during a recent trip to Melbourne, to find that they haven't added their tram network to Google Maps yet, and had to go to the tourist information centre in Fed Square to work out which one I needed to catch.
And a street directory is hardly as useful as Google Maps. I certainly can't ask the Melway how to get to a place and have it magically tell me.
