Passengers swap from bus to tram
Nottingham tram
Trams are proving more popular than buses on certain routes
Two direct bus routes between Nottingham and Hucknall are being scrapped because of the popularity of the city's new tram system.

The Number 45 and Hucknall Flyer services have been losing business rapidly since April last year.

Bus operator Trent Barton said that new feeder services will connect estates in Hucknall with the tram interchange.

The city's tram service has been running on one line for nine months and there are plans for an extension.
