The bus system in Nottingham isn't too bad - the buses are pretty frequent and timetables are easy to get hold of. The annoying thing about Notts is the roadworks - the tram system is under construction and the diversions have been hell...its nearly over though - heaven only knows when they'll get going.

Nottingham Railway Station is in Carrington Street, near the Broadmarsh Centre. There are direct trains to here from St. Pancras Station in London. The journey takes just under two hours. Leave a Comment

Trams were reintroduced to Nottingham in 2004. There is currently one line, which runs from Nottingham Station, through the Lace Market and old Market Square, then northward to Bulwell and Hucknall. There are plans to extend the network. The trams run from around 6am to midnight. You can travel all day on the trams for £2.20, but it is better to buy a CityRider ticket for £2.50, which entitles you to travel all day on Nottingham's buses as well as trams. You can buy the tickets on the trams. Leave a Comment

Nottingham has recently opened (March 2004) the first stage of its tram network. It's called the NET (Nottingham express transport) whilst the weekly tickets go under the equally catchy title of 'Easyrider' (plenty of room for jokes here). You can buy tickets on board from the conductor- but as only one line is open so far, it is of very limited use to the tourist. It does however provide a useful link from the Train station to the Marketplace (where the Tourist Information office is). Eighty pence for two stops. Leave a Comment

The city buses won't stop for you, even if they can see you standing at the busstop, unless you stick out your arm to flag them down. Theme: Bus

The travel centre, in Market Square, sells 3 types of travel passes for bus and tram and has all the Nottingham routes and a route map. They are called EASYRIDER and prices are from £5 upwards depending on how often you plan to use public transport. An all day ticket for use on both bus and tram currently costs £3.00.

There are no subways or metros in Nottingham, but they are in the process of building a tram system. The tram will start operating soon. Alternatively, you can take the bus. There's a big Broadmarsh bus station and a train station. Leave a Comment
