Edinburgh Trams say they are committed to giving the best possible travel experience to its customers, and one of the things they have done to ensure that is fit all the trams with wifi equipment.

This was enabled by funding from The City of Edinburgh Council’s Capital Connected Programme last year.

The company say they are now looking to enhance this provision for customers. This month the next phase of the Wi-Fi project is being  trialled on all trams.

Tom Norris, Director and General Manager said:

We’re very excited about this next phase of our Wi-Fi project. On our trams you’ll find links to news, entertainment, weather, funny stories and journey planning information.

This trial is a lite version which will run for the rest of March 2015. The complete service will be available later this year.

The full version will include a wealth of dynamically updated, highly relevant information with a focus on passengers getting the best out of the tram service and the Edinburgh and Lothians areas.  Keep your eyes open for it.

We went along to the City Chambers yesterday to meet up with the Lord Provost of the City of Edinburgh who is running in the London Marathon for charity. Anyone else out there going to London?
