We return to Nottingham Express Transit for our next set of “Stop by Stop” as we feature the 13 stops which are in the “central area” of the tramway between Nottingham Station and Wilkinson Street. And we start off with Nottingham Station.
Situated on the viaduct which takes the tramway above Nottingham Railway Station, the stop at Nottingham Station was the first part of NET phase two to open with the first passengers being welcomed on 27th July 2015 (around a month before the rest of phase two started running). It replaced the previous terminus at Station Street (located just to the north of the current stop). With access to the railway station in two places, the stop has platforms either side of the tracks and features cover along the full length of both platforms. It also has the standard features of stops on NET – ticket machines, validators, electronic next tram displays, CCTV, information panels etc.
