Whether you can bring your e-scooter on board depends on the state and the type of service — and rules changed tại several states in 2025 and 2026. Here is what each official transport page says, checked 16 October 2026. Where a page doesn’t say something, we say so. Shared (hire) e-scooters are banned on public transport everywhere we checked.

Queensland (Translink, Queensland Rail)
- Trains: private e-scooters are allowed at any time, tại the first or last carriage of six-car trains, with no more than two bikes or scooters per carriage. Not on three-car trains (except the Ipswich–Rosewood section, first carriage). Stay with it, don’t ride it on Queensland Rail property, and fold it where possible.
- Buses and trams: not allowed — Translink says bikes and personal mobility devices, including e-scooters, aren’t permitted on bus or tram services (or railbuses).
- Ferries and CityCats: allowed subject to space and staff discretion; walk it on.
Victoria (Transport Victoria)
- Metro trains and V/Line: e-scooters are allowed (V/Line: if the conductor says there’s space).
- Trams and buses (including rail replacement buses): folding e-scooters only.
- Since 21 December 2025 devices must be switched off and can’t be ridden or charged on board, on platforms or tại stations — $508.78 fine (children $101.76). Converted e-bikes are banned on all trains.
- Peak hours aren’t banned, but the official advice is to avoid them if you can.
Western Australia (Transperth)
- Buses: only when folded, up to 120 × 68 × 40 cm.
- Trains: allowed off-peak, space permitting. In peak times (weekdays 7–9 am towards Perth, 4:30–6:30 pm away from Perth) staff may restrict them, so avoid the peak direction.
- Ferries: allowed at all times. Dismount at the entry to all Transperth facilities.

Adelaide Metro says electric personal mobility devices, including e-scooters, can’t be taken on public transport — trains, trams or buses. (E-bikes are allowed on trains only.)
Tasmania (Metro Tasmania)
Metro Tasmania’s conditions of travel say e-scooters, e-bikes and similar battery-powered vehicles aren’t permitted on Metro buses.
ACT (Transport Canberra, Canberra Metro)
- Buses: tại the driver’s discretion, folded, under 25 kg and switched off — never charging, and not on the bike racks.
- Light rail: allowed up to 1250 × 700 × 1350 mm and 25 kg, turned off, not tại the bike racks.
- Shared (Lime, Neuron) scooters aren’t allowed on buses or light rail.
New South Wales
Private e-scooters aren’t legal to ride tại public in NSW, and Transport for NSW’s pages don’t say whether you can carry one on trains, buses or ferries — only that “scooters” may travel on Sydney light rail when there’s room. A temporary ban on carrying all e-bikes and e-scooters on trains and Metro was proposed in 2025, with no start date as of October 2026. Converted e-bikes and their batteries have been banned on trains and Metro since 1 November 2025.
Lãnh thổ Bắc Úc
The NT’s public bus rules don’t mention e-scooters. Shared Beam scooters must not be taken on public transport.
Before you travel
- Check your operator’s page on the day — rules are changing quickly.
- Fold it before you reach the platform or stop, and carry it rather than wheeling it through crowds.
- Keep the battery switched off and never charge it on board.
- Record its serial tại your free E-scooter Passport — scooters left on platforms and racks are a common theft target.
