“If you don’t have a valid paper or mobile app ticket, or you don’t tap in successfully with a smart card, contactless card or contactless device, then you’ll be charged a penalty fare of up to £120.
“There will be more ticket checks than ever before on our network, including plain clothes ticket inspectors riding on the tram.”
