Nottinghamshire Live readers have been discussing the ambitious plan to expand the Nottingham tram network with eight new tram lines.

Calls have been made for more electric buses in Nottingham after a debate on extending the city's tram system reignited. Proposals were put forward in 2016 for an additional five tram lines to be built.

One reader, DizzyLizzy1993 showed optimism, saying: "Cool. I believe it when I see it and be very pleased. Trams are cool." Archie_handbrake offered an alternative: "Surely, investing in electric buses and creating off-road cycle lanes are the best route to a “world-class” city? We have too many hills for trams, and the demolition needed to lay tracks is not a good thing."
