Getting around
Beeston is on the Nottingham Tram and Bus routes
For going into the city, most people use the tram as it is smooth and reasonably quick. You can buy a day ticket. You must buy a ticket before you travel and inspectors are frequently checking tickets
There are several tram stops in Beeston and along Chilwel Road so you are never far from a stop.
Buses also travel these routes and there are signs at the stops to tell you when the next bus or tram is due.
No dogs on the tram but they are allowed on the buses.
