Service levels
Approximate operating hours for most tram routes are as follows:
Monday to Thursday: 5am - midnight
Friday & Saturday: 5am - 1am (following day)
Sunday: 8am - midnight
Services are fairly consistent across the network except for routes 35 and 82, which finish earlier. Also route 79 replaces Route 78 on Sundays and evenings.
Service intervals on most routes are as follows:
Weekday peak: 6-10 min
Weekday off-peak: 8-12 min
Weekday evening: 20 min
Saturday: 12-15 min
Saturday evening: 20 min
Sunday morning: 30 min
Sunday daytime: 12-15 min
Sunday evening: 30 min
Late evening services do not always run their full route. Some routes run more frequently than the intervals mentioned above, with very frequent service along roads common to two or more routes. During peak periods the busy inner sections of some routes may be served by trams displaying route numbers not listed here.

The Victorian Fares and Ticketing Manual is now the legal gazetted reference and takes precedence over zone information published elsewhere. It should be consulted if exact details of zone boundaries and overlaps are required.
Passenger Information
All tram stops have strip maps and timetables that show the time of the next tram, vandals permitting. When services are frequent, exact times may be replaced by a frequency guide. Both whole route and individual stop timetables are available from the Metlink website.
Some busy platform stops (mainly in the city) have electronic 'next tram' signs. In addition some have a large button that people can press for an audio announcement. These are similar to the 'green button' system at railway stations.
Real-time voice and SMS tram arrival information at stops without these facilities is available on your mobile phone through tramTRACKER. In both cases you dial a number (1300 698 726 voice, 1999 2772 sms) and enter a four digit tram stop ID number. Then it will tell you the time of the next three trams by voice or reply SMS message. TramTracker information is also now available from the Yarra Trams website.
All trams have at least a tram network map inside. Older trams sometimes have a comprehensive inner city transport map, which should be used with caution due to its age. The Fares and Travel Guide is usually available in self-serve racks near the ticket vending machine, while advice of service changes is provided on a notice board at the front of the tram. On-board availability of paper timetables varies.
All good tram drivers manually announce major stops (including transfer points like railway stations), though as with trains this cannot be relied on. New trams also include visual displays advising major stops and/or landmarks.

Coping with service disruptions
Service disruptions fall into either of two categories; planned or unplanned.
Planned service disruptions mostly occur due to track or road works. To minimise disruption to commuters, the work is normally done on weekends, during which time buses replace trams. Buses normally depart from tram stops, though stops near the work site may be placed out of use. Information about planned work is erected at tram stops along the affected route several days in advance.
Unplanned service disruptions may occur due to road accidents or downed overheads. Depending on its location, one or several routes could be affected. When services do resume there may be 'bunching' until the backlog of passengers is cleared and it may take one to two hours before normal timetabled running resumes.
