The Translink Access Pass is a travel pass for people with a permanent physical or intellectual disability who can:
- travel independently on Translink services, and
- demonstrate that due to their disability they are unable to independently use a go card.
Passholders receive unlimited travel on all South East Queensland Translink bus, train, ferry and tram services (except Airtrain).
You are required to carry the card with you all at times when travelling, as you may be asked by a driver or authorised person to show your card.
There is no need to tap on and off like a go card.
Who can apply
To be eligible for a Translink Access Pass you must ensure that you:
- are a permanent Queensland resident
- have a significant permanent physical or intellectual disability
- can travel independently
- have been assessed by a qualified health care professional as being unable to touch on or touch off with a go card.
If you have a vision impairment, please apply for the Vision Impairment Travel Pass instead.
