To speed up journey times - which gets you to your destination quicker - NCT operates an exact fare only system. When you board the bus, please have the correct money ready for your journey.
Please place your money into the red hopper coin box near the driver's cab and tell the driver which ticket you wish to buy. The driver will issue you a ticket - please keep this ticket because it is your proof of payment for when an inspector boards and it also helps us identify the bus you've travelled on if you need to contact us at a later date.
When tendering your fare, passengers are reminded of Legal Tender Guidelines, issued from The Royal Mint and available here.
