From Monday 5 August the tramway will be closed for 14 days between The Forest and Old Market Square while essential track maintenance work is carried out.
Work is being carried out around the clock - with consideration for residents - in order to minimise disruption, but unfortunately theseworks will have an impact on both tram passengers and motorists - more details below.
Services will go back to normal on Monday 19 August, when affected roads will also reopen.

Why is this work happening?
From time to time Nottingham Express Transit (NET), which runs the tram network, has to carry out essential maintenance work. Last year the tram carried around 19million passengers, and it's crucial to keep the network in top condition.
This is a busy section of the network, and some stretches of track have been in place since the tram opened 15 years ago.
The work to replace them will ensure NET can continue to provide a safe, comfortable and reliable service to customers.
Constantina Samara, NET Customer Service Manager, added:The work is being carried out during the holidays as this is one of the quietest times of the year and, although every effort is being made to make travelling as easy as possible, we would ask customers to allow extra time for their journey.
Additional staff will be on hand throughout this period to advise customers on how best to complete their journey, and NET thanks them for their patience and apologises for any inconvenience while this essential maintenance is carried out.
