Nottingham's trams are still being significantly disrupted as a result of huge flooding in a Nottinghamshire town. Severn Trent said one of its pipes was "damaged by a third party" near High Road, Chilwell, early on Tuesday afternoon (March 7), which led to a large amount of water bursting on to nearby streets and homes for hours.
Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service confirmed 10 properties had been flooded and the majority of these had also been evacuated. Those forced to leave their properties gathered at a local church - while other residents tried to create makeshift barriers to stop the water from spreading.
Nottingham's tram network has been partially halted by the flooding, with no services between University of Nottingham and Toton since early Tuesday afternoon. In a Twitter post, NCT Tram said: "Disruption to services is expected to continue into Wednesday with no services between University of Nottingham and Toton.
