The rise in fares on Nottingham's trams is necessary to ensure a 'reliable service' can continue across the city, the service's chief executive has said. Operator NET confirmed travel prices will rise from Monday, April 3.
An adult single ticket will rise by 20p - meaning a journey will now cost passengers £3. The company has stated that the decision to increase fares was "hard" but that the move was "necessary" to ensure trams operate a reliable service throughout the city.
The planned price adjustment will see a selection of tickets increase, including the adult single ticket and the adult day ticket, which will increase by 30p, from £4.70 to £5. Some fares will remain the same, though, including the short hop ticket, priced at £1,.50 and the group ticket prices will stay at £8 for off-peak and £12 during peak times.
