History edit

The stop opened on 9 March 2004, as part of the first phase of the network, between Hucknall or Phoenix Park and Station Street.[1][2] It is located on a one-way section of the tramway, and is served only by southbound trams. The nearest northbound stop is Beaconsfield Street. It has one side platform flanking the single track, which is shared with other road traffic

On 25 August 2015, the network was extended south, with branches to Clifton South and Toton Lane.[3][4][5]

As of January 2022, services operate at a combined 3–8 minute frequency between David Lane and Nottingham Station. Heading south, trams continue to Clifton South and Toton Lane up to every 7–15 minutes. Heading north (from nearby Beaconsfield Street), trams continue to Hucknall and Phoenix Park up to every 7–15 minutes.[6]
