That sounds like the sort of thing that could be solved of the will was there - either by modifying the Thane Road exit, or making whatever changes are needed to allow the buses to run through the campus (amendments were made at the City Hospital site a few years back to allow the new buses to...
The UK's 8th, 10th, and 11th largest cities and the centre of the 9th largest city (Nottingham, Sheffield, Leicester, and Bristol) are all served solely by diesel traction. Completing the electrification of a single railway line (the Midland Mainline) would change that for three of those...
Are even more Electric Buses coming for Nottinghamshire City Transport via East Midlands Combined County Authority or is this connected to the recent announcement of 12 new buses ordered at the ALBUM conference?

That would be very welcomed in Lady Bay (although if the Morrisons bit was lost there would be some disappointment) as the service has been rather unreliable since extended to Cropwell Bishop - I know both of my housemates that used to rely on the bus now walk/ride to work in the city centre as...
Presumably in the long term it would be similar to the 4 - providing more frequency on the busiest section of the route, while also providing better accessibility to the parts of the estate furthest from Fairham way (getting towards a km at the outer edges)

Green 11 cut again, that's gone from.every 10 to 12 to 20 and now every 30 minutes.
Once the waterside bridge opens it will be quicker to walk to the city centre than wait for the next bus.
The 90 being under NCT at least gives another option - NCT expanding out to traditional Trent Barton...
Jaguar managed to increase the urban range of their I-Pace by about 10% a few years back though a series of software updates which maximised efficiency - based on learnings from Formula E. https://sustainabilitymag.com/articles/formula-e-shaping-future-electric-cars
Also modern EVs are...
Nottingham has already had it's EV fleet, accidently, disabled after a faulty software update!

No phased rollout seems to be very odd too.
Hopefully this mismatch of synthetic junk is something GBR can sort.
My local bus operator, Nottingham City Transport, uses a radio presenter - David Lloyd - for their announcements and the difference in clarity between those announcements (from someone who's livelyhood depended on clear...
Has anyone checked the Lybian desert recently?
(One of the Danish IC4s being built by Ansaldobreda (now Hitachi Italy) that went missing ended up being found in the Lybian Desert)

Nottingham City Transport uses radio present David Lloyd to record all there announcement - apparently it took 3 8 hour days to record them all.
Nottingham Post: This man tells you where to get off the bus every day - and you've never met him
Actually a good point hidden there - Windows 10.reaches end of life this month meaning security updates, basically, end.
Including real-time information and departures at interchanges is going to require internet connectivity of some form (even if it's using a VPN backhaul) - Nottingham City...
Nottingham City Transport have them - alight here for Trent Bridge and the City Ground / alight here for the Lace Market National Ice Centre (can't remember if the Trent FM are a is part of that one!).
They've had screens so long the first buses I recall having them on the Green Line services...
Kortrijk station and the area around it are in the middle of a big redevelopment that supposedly improving the station too - quiet a lot of development has recently happend in that city both along the railway and elsewhere (including 7 new bridges over the Leie)...
Travelling back to Nottingham midweek on the last London departure a few weeks ago in Standard we were all offered a free sandwich or salad and those of us (most) who took up the offer were told we could take 2 of we wanted.
Seems like there was a lot of unclaimed/unsold ones that day!
I see that a number of nearby roads are also to be closed to prevent rat-running through the nearby villages, and another benefit has been added to the list - the ability to run a tamping machine (the wordings implies just the once, but I assume that once you've enough height for electrification...
NCT do have form for cascading buses though - so might come in, on say, green line, freeing up middle aged buses to be cascaded to replace the oldest ones.
But also the cost of gas has been something NCT has called out a few times, so perhaps reducing their reliance on gas might be more of a...
