Yet again NET wait until I have a week of annual leave to schedule disruptive work, which is going to make getting to the station a pain!
Work at The Forest scheduled between 18th-31st of August, presumably for track renewal. One hopes they don't opt to simply do an 'as like' replacement for the track already there, as they did with the Hyson Green Market curve last year, especially given how many issues The Forest track layout seems to have caused and how rather slow it is.
It is clear the current situation is untenable, however, as the southbound trams are very much having a battle navigating the S&C with some brutal TSRs and one of the platforms out of use.
I thought I'd keep this thread up and running so a) someone can potentially enlighten us with the planned scope of works b) to keep track of the progress and snap some nerdy pics and c) see how the replacement bus service does. (I remember last year's one was painfully slow)
Happy travelling trampas!
