Nottingham's tram operator has confirmed a carriage collided with a pole in Bulwell as services continue to face disruption. NET says there are no tram services between Wilkinson Street and Hucknall because of an incident at the Bulwell tram stop on Monday night (June 12).
There had been multiple unconfirmed reports that Monday's extreme weather, including heavy rain and lightning, had caused a tram to derail. But NET says the tram did not derail and that it is too early to say if the weather was a factor in the incident.
Confirming the details of what happened, an NET spokesman on Tuesday said: "Following Monday's incident at the Bulwell stop involving one of our trams and a pole supporting overhead line equipment, services were suspended between Wilkinson Street and Hucknall.
