The Nottingham tram network issued a small annual fare increase from the start of this week (Monday 30 August).

The changes were originally due to be introduced in 2020 but were postponed for 12 months due to the Coronavirus pandemic.

Day tickets have increased by between 10p and 20p while weekly tickets have risen by 50p. The changes will apply to day and weekly tickets purchased via ticket machines and the NETGO! app and will also affect Robin Hood Pay As You Go.

Andrew Conroy, chief operating officer of Tramlink, said: "Like all public transport operators we need to review ticket prices every year to take into account inflation and other cost increases. We made a decision last year to delay an annual fare increase to reflect the ongoing impact of the Covid pandemic. These small increases ensure NET fares continue to offer people good value for money as the tram helps keep Nottingham moving."
