Construction work on Phase Two of Nottingham Express Transit has gathered pace in the last few weeks with seven day a week working now in evidence. Traction poles are now up in several places including Chillwell, Wilford Riverside and Meadows Way/Arkwright Street. The point work for the junction of the two routes is now being laid and most of the track has now been laid on the Station bridge and ramp. With thanks to David Beardsell we are able to bring you photographic updates of some of the recent progress.
This shows work on laying the track at the junction where the two Phase Two lines separate.
