Track Removal near north end of Fitting Shop

A view of the tram track which has been lifted in Blundell Street

A section of tram track has been removed in Blundell Street this week, which now prevents any tram from accessing the fitting shop via the northern (rear) entrance. It is not known why the short piece of track has been removed, as the remaining track along Blundell Street, through the new Foxhall Village housing development, is merely being covered over with tarmac rather than lifted. Access to Rigby Road from Blundell Street has been closed off for the duration of the work.
