TransLink deputy director general Matthew Longland said the 1.5 per cent increase reflected the increased cost of providing transport services,such as driver and support staff wages,fuel and vehicle costs.
"Even with the modest CPI rise,fares in Queensland will still be cheaper than they were in 2014,"Mr Longland said.
"The cost of a one-zone adult Go Card journey will increase by 5₵ to $3.25.
"The same trip was $3.35 back in November 2014."
A four-zone journey will increase by 12₵ to $7.97.
For commuters travelling between five and eight zones,the fare rise will be between 15₵ and 29₵.
However,Mr Longland said commuters would still be paying less than they were before TransLink introduced the redesignedFairer Fares model in December,2016.
