Save money on public transport

Image result for robin hood cardIf you use public transport a lot, you can save money by choosing from a range of different ticket types to suit the type and frequency of your travel. Some tickets can be bought on the day, whilst others must be purchased in advance. As well as tickets for use with a single operator (e.g. Nottingham City Transport), you can also buy tickets that can be used with multiple bus and train companies, and on the tram. Please visit individual operator websites and www.robinhoodnetwork.co.uk to find out more.

For information on concessionary travel passes and how to apply, please visit the Nottinghamshire Country Council website

community-bus-2Community bus

There is a free Community Bus funded by the Parish Council which operates in the village on Wednesdays. This very popular service is run with the help of volunteer drivers and escorts who supervise the bus on its weekly run. Contact the Parish Council for further details, or if you’d like to volunteer to help with this valuable service.

Trams

Ruddington doesn’t have its own tram stop. The nearest stop is Ruddington Lane in Wilford, which is around a mile from the village centre. There are also several stops in Clifton. The NCT 3 bus goes past the Ruddington Lane stop and both the NCT 3 and the L22/23 go past some of the Clifton stops, so it’s fairly easy to connect with the tram. You can find timetables and route details at the NET website.
