The Robin Hood Network provides a comprehensive suite of multi-operator, multi-modal tickets and smart cards for travel across Greater Nottingham for adults, students and juniors. The latest development is the Robin Hood Pay As You Go travel card which is the first fully-integrated, capped-fare, multi-modal, ITSO-compliant, smart ticketing system in the UK, differing from London due to the need to accommodate the deregulated environment and operators' own tickets. The Robin Hood Network is a partnership between public transport operators in Greater Nottingham, including bus, tram and rail operators; in fact 13 different partners have come together to deliver the scheme. In the first 15 months, 10,000 passengers are travelling more because the PAYG card makes it easier, and 38% of users now use more than one transport operator for the same reason. Half of users have switched from paper tickets and 2.5% of users have switched from their cars to public transport due to the new ticketing scheme.
