Personalised Public Transport

Brisbane City Council is committed to getting residents home quicker and safer with more travel options. Personalised Public Transport (PPT) is a low-cost hail and ride service that helps connect residents to their local transport hubs. 

This service operates in areas where Translink services are limited, and operates with specially marked wheelchair-accessible and air conditioned maxi-cabs provided by Black & White Cabs.

PPT services:

• carry up to 10 people per trip
• can pick up and drop off passengers where safe to do so on a fixed route
• operate on a loop
• are branded with 'Personalised Public Transport' and the Brisbane City Council logo.

PPT is different to the Council Cabs service.

Fares

All PPT fares are $1 each way, however children under 5 years and legally blind persons travel free. 

Customers who transfer from a PPT to a Translink service must then pay the applicable Translink fare.
