The latest travel updates
🚆 Rail Services:
Before travelling by train, please consider if there is an alternate way you can make your journey; current timetables are to allow key workers to travel and social distancing is being implemented on board, reducing capacity by over 80%.
If you must make a journey via train it is recommended to reserve a seat to guarantee your journey.
If travelling on a long-distance service, you are strongly advised to make a reservation beforehand as capacity will be limited and you may otherwise not be able to travel
🚍 Bus Services:
NCT will be increasing their services in operation from Sunday 31 June. Find out more here.
NCT have also issued some Safer Travel Guidance for Passengers. More information be found here: nctx.co.uk/safertravel
 Active travel
Nottingham has a great track record in developing innovative cycle support services, whether you're an experienced cyclist or someone who has only recently taken up the activity since lockdown.
For more information on the different cycling and walking services we offer, please visit our website.
The end of #NationalWalkingMonth may be approaching, but that doesn't mean you need to stop too. During lockdown you might have discovered a new favourite past time in taking a leisurely stroll, or found that walking is a more enjoyable commute.
Where possible, please continue to travel actively so that operators can prioritise public transport seats for key workers, and help to free up road space and reduce toxic emissions.
