Vandal attacks on Nottingham tram stops costs network tens of thousands

A spate of vandal attacks on Nottingham tram stops has caused tens of thousands of pounds worth of damage, police say. Touchscreen ticket machines have been smashed and shelters damaged at stops between Moor Bridge in Bulwell and David Lane in Old Basford.

A group of youths reportedly shattered a shelter at Highbury Vale with a rock in the most recent attack on Monday, April 24. In another attack on March 3, two youths wearing dark clothing smashed two ticket machines.

Police searched the area and reviewed CCTV footage but were unable to identify the offenders. Officers have since stepped up patrols around the affected areas.
