Nottingham, United Kingdom : 26th October, 2015
On August 25th 2015 after much delay and months of testing, Nottingham more than doubled its tram network with its "Big Bang" opening of two routes to the south of the city (to Toton Lane and to Clifton South). The new lines join the original tram line above Nottingham Station where the elevated route was extended to take tracks directly over the inter-city rail station and now run through to Hucknall and Phoenix Park respectively. This series looks at the Toton Lane line only. 

Not an enormous amount of the Nottingham system shares road space with car traffic as roads in UK cities tend to be too narrow to allow central reservations to be created. Therefore they have to be carefully integrated into existing street plans, often with associated traffic calming measures. In the photo above, a tram heading to Toton Lane approaches Chilwell Road in the suburban town of Beeston. It is one of the 22 Alstom Citadis trams purchased in advance of the extensions opening to augment the original fleet of Bombardier Incentros.
