The hope is that the scheme will more than pay for itself in year one through the increased value of travel time in the region, followed by further benefits in future years. The scheme will cost NXEA over £200k a year to run.
Adrian Gunson, cabinet member for planning and transportation on Norfolk County Council said: “This is particularly good news for business travellers. The big advantage of inter-city rail travel for business is that the time spent on the move can be put to good use. Wi-Fi on the train means that it can be used even more productively.”
