- Via the footpath from the Racecourse Road Car Park – see alternative route 2 on the map
Public transport
Celebrating 125 years of public ownership for Nottingham City Transport!
NCT have unveiled a special Nottingham themed bus, celebrating everything that makes our city great! Can you spot the over 20 references to our city hidden in the design?
It’s to celebrate 125 years since October 1897 when Nottingham City Council took over running what was then the Nottingham Tramway Company. Betty Higgins, Nottingham City Council’s first woman leader, had the foresight to fight to keep NCT publicly owned during Margaret Thatcher’s 1980s bus reforms. A legacy which has had a lasting, positive impact.

Linkbus service changes
Following a consultation earlier in the year, the Council has made the difficult decision to reduce the frequency of some of the Linkbus network as a result of necessary budget savings worsened by recent inflationary pressures.
To limit the impact on passengers no service has been completely withdrawn, but some of the services will now operate on fewer days. For more information on the changes, please visit: www.transportnottingham.com/linkbus
