The NET network will be composed of two tramway lines departing from Nottingham station to serve the south and southwest of the city. With up to 10 million passengers per year on the existing line, the expanded network will increase capacity to an estimated 23 million passengers a year.
Citadis
The Citadis for Nottingham are 32 metres long and can carry up to 274 people. Their maximum speed is 70 km/h and they have been specially designed to fit in with the pre-existing fleet of trams already operating in Nottingham. They are expected to have a 35-year lifetime, with a forecast annual mileage of around 90,000 km. Alstom is in charge of their maintenance along with the 15 other trams already in service on the NET network.
