Spring has finally sprung and Easter is almost upon us.

At Edinburgh Trams, safety is our number one priority. We always encourage caution on and around the tramline, regardless of whether you’re a passenger, pedestrian, or driver. 

To remind those travelling near the tramline, we’re promoting the Light Rail Safety and Standards Board’s ‘Two Lines = STOP’ safety campaign, prompting pedestrians to pay more attention when travelling near the tramway.

We were delighted to welcome the Royal National Institute of Blind People Scotland (RNIB Scotland) to the tram depot last week to speak to a group of colleagues from across the business and run a practical workshop to help improve understanding of the experiences faced by blind and partially sighted people when using public transport.

The group from Edinburgh Trams included on-tram staff, members of the Customer Relations and Revenue Protection teams, and other business support staff, with plans to roll training out to further groups over the coming months.

The Guinness Men’s Six Nations makes its triumphant return this month, bringing together six competing nations from across the northern hemisphere for a heated six-week championship for the 143rd edition of the tournament.

This year, Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium will host two rival countries, England on Saturday 14 February and France on Saturday 7 March. For those heading to Murrayfield Stadium to watch the matches, we’ll be running additional services before and after games, so that rugby fans can enjoy seamless travel to and from the events.

Edinburgh Trams is today announcing an increase in ticket prices, in line with Lothian Buses. Fare changes will come into effect from start of service on Sunday 22 February and reflects the increased operational costs faced by the operator over the past year.

The fare changes will see the cost of an Adult Single fare rises from £2.20 to £2.40, with City Zone Day Tickets also increase by 50p, to £6.00. Tram Airport Fare zone tickets will remain frozen at the current rates with proportional fare increases applying to Ridacard with other tickets options detailed below.

The longest month of the year is finally coming to an end (why is January never ending?!), so there’s no better time to shake off those January blues and step into February, aka the month of love. The weather may still be cold outside, but there’s plenty of things to get you out of house and spending your time in the city.

Whether you’re spending the month with a significant other, loved ones, or heading out by yourself, bundle up with Edinburgh Trams (January may be over, but it’s still cold out there!) to save on your tram travel with the ET App.

Some of our colleagues from across the business spent a day with the Borders Forest Trust late last year, learning about their efforts to re-wild the Scottish Borders, and planting trees at their site near Moffatt to help them do so.

The team were very lucky to have dry weather on the day, which was cold and sunny as the group of 8 headed south to the area. 

Edinburgh Trams multi-award-winning tramway has enjoyed another record-breaking year in 2025.

Thanks to a packed calendar of events and integration of a new payment solution, Edinburgh Trams continued to grow and take locals and visitors alike across the city and beyond for another year of success. In 2025, the tram operator saw growth of 3.3% up on 2024, recording 12.5 million customer journeys in total. 

The festive season may be drawing to a close, but 2026 is just around the corner, and the fun and excitement continues into January!

The Scottish capital is never short on things to do to occupy your time - from an inaugural winter jazz experience, theatre, comedy, and unique experiences all happening in Scottish capital, you can kick off your new year in style to make sure the winter blues are kept under wraps this month.
