Price rise for short-hop tram tickets from machine
NETChanges to short journey fares on Nottingham's tram network will see one type of ticket rise by a third.
From Monday, the cost of Short Hop tram paper tickets purchased from a machine will rise by 50p to £2, said Nottingham Express Transit (NET).
But contactless Short Hop payments, paid for at "tap on" validators, will remain at £1.50 and all other ticket prices across the board will remain unchanged.
Passengers using this fare have also been warned to remember to "tap off" at the end of their journey, or they will be charged the full standard adult single price of £3.40.
The short journey fare is charged for travelling within one of nine zones which together cover the entire network.
Alison Sweeney, head of marketing at NET, said: "Following the introduction of our 'Tap On, Tap Off' Short Hop travel ticket last year, it's been brilliant to see so many of our customers reaping the benefits of the convenience it offers.
"Switching to digital tickets offers a more streamlined experience, while helping to reduce waste as it eliminates the need to print off a paper ticket.
"We hope this new fare change serves as an encouragement to passengers to make the switch to digital tickets."
