A city-bound tram at Meadows Way
The tram is on Meadows Way. The remaining section of Wilford Road, once a much busier road, which runs parallel, is in the foreground. The rusty green cast-iron object in the foreground is a relic of Nottingham's earlier tram and trolleybus systems - for more about it, see Image

Wilford Road Feeder Pillar
Wilford Road is long gone, and so are the Nottingham City Transport electric trams and later trolleybuses supplied with 550V DC current from this feeder pillar. Power was generated by the Nottingham Corporation Electricity Department at its power stations and high-voltage AC current carried by underground cable to sub-stations where it was converted to DC; that current was then taken through these feeders (there were many around the city) to the overhead trolley wires. (Source of information: "Nottingham Trolleybuses" by David R H Bowler; Trolley Books, 2006.) The new NET tram route to Chilwell will pass this interesting survival on Meadows Way - perhaps it could be preserved as a reminder of earlier forms of electric transport in Nottingham.

Protective barrier on Meadows Way West
The provision of a vehicle guard barrier in a purely urban environment is very unusual, but here there is only a very narrow space between this carriageway and Waterway Street, where traffic is travelling in the opposite direction.

A Toton Lane tram on Meadows Way
The road system hereabouts dates from the redevelopment of The Meadows in the 1970s, when Victorian terraced streets were swept away. This part of Meadows Way runs parallel to Waterway Street West.
