Nottingham tram bosses have outlined plans for changes to the speed limit at one of their stops after a man said his mental health was being affected by passing trams. The complainant contacted bosses in December last year, complaining that noise and vibrations emanating from points along the track at Bulwell tram stop were causing his house to "rumble and shake".
The complaints were published in a report released by the Greater Nottingham Light Rapid Transit Committee (GNLRT), which advises the city council on the operation of the tram system. The complainant said the alleged vibrations, at his property south of the tram stop, in Padley Close, Bulwell, were causing him to lose sleep.
Now, ahead of the GNLRT committee meeting on Tuesday (March 14), a correspondence with the resident has been published in which NET Tram has agreed that a temporary speed restriction of 40kph should be introduced. The restriction would be in place for all trams crossing the points.
