The latest progress on the major trackwork being undertaken on the Blackpool and Fleetwood Tramway:
Pleasure Beach:
The point to access the new inner loop from the outer loop is now in position approximately one to one and a half tram lengths from the southbound line. Other preformed sections and pre-curved rail are in the proximity waiting to be fitted.
Foxhall Square:
The points and diamonds have now been delivered although not yet fitted.
Gynn Square to Norbreck:
Recent progress has been concentrated on rail welding at Cliffs Hotel, work on the Bispham “loop” and excavation of the Bispham to Haddon Road trackbed.
Little Bispham:
The majority of the southbound line is now in place with temporary plain track in the area where the entry to the loop will be.
