Jul 30, 2008 - Thanks a lot for this video! Im going to Nottingham next winter, to study at Nottingham University for a semester. Its good to get an idea of the place before going.

Aug 2, 2008 - You went past where I work on Angel Row! I love Nottingham, don't care what anyone says, it's my home and I've lived here all my life. Funnily enough, it's always the people who don't live here who insult it and say it's "the worst place to live" etc. etc. Oh and ssosofsofisofia, Nottingham Uni (where I went) is about a 10 min bus ride outside the city. It's actually on University Boulvard, which if you follow the road straight on to Castle Boulvard, gets you more or less in the centre.

Sep 16, 2008 - You do realise you drove somewhere meant only for trams? When you went past market sqaure. Hahaha!
Mahxirb Says:
Sep 16, 2008 - What was that illegel maneuvre at 1:03??? xD
Mahxirb Says:
Sep 16, 2008 - People who say that have obviosuly never been here and believe everything they hear on some crappy documentary on TV a couple of years ago, which "claimed" South London was the best place to live, and Nottingham was 7th worst.
electrotek Says:
Sep 16, 2008 - i turned right after the Tramway Trams Only blue sign...perfectly legal to Right Turn from bottom of Friar Lane/South Parade into Angel Row...check the video again :) Cheers and thanks for commenting :) James :)
electrotek Says:
Sep 16, 2008 - The Blue signedpost depicting Tramway - Trams Only is reached at 0:59 secs. The right turn at approx 1:03 is not illegal. Cheers, friend and thanks for commenting :) btw. easy mistake to make as the video is not in HiQual due to videofile compression requirement of upload to YouTube.
electrotek Says:
Sep 16, 2008 - REally ;0 ... O.K. i respect your opinion...thanks friend for commenting :)

electrotek Says:
Sep 29, 2008 - seems the city road network planners change the city centre street routing every other month...now proposing NO Right Turn at Victoria Street into Hockley / George Street area...How we get to Clinton Street is anyones guess...lol ( Will look good on the NEW CCTV as vehicles try ) Cheers and take care, James

electrotek Says:
Jul 3, 2008 - Hi David :) The route of the video has no bus lanes. Just a tramway where part of is allowed by private vehicles to load/unload and pass thru. Although there are time restrictions ( i.e. The ` Clear Zone` ); these did not apply to my vehicle because it displays a valid Nottm City Centre ACCESS PERMIT. Thanks for your comment :) Cheers James
