Heavy snowfall and winds will affect traffic conditions on Thursday 18 January. We will reduce tram services in a planned manner in order to ensure that services will run as smoothly as possible and that the timetables are as reliable as possible. This will also provide us with the opportunity to remove older tram models from traffic for the day. The older models in particular have had problems with operating in cold weather.
