A BUS crashed into a toilet block during tram works in the centre of Beeston.
The Nottingham City Transport double-decker careered into the toilet block at Beeston Bus Station.
No one was hurt in the incident which happened around 8.15pm, but the bus station remained closed for several hours yesterday morning.
It only reopened at 1pm after a large section of overhanging concrete was removed from the building.
No one was in the toilet block at the time and no one was injured in the incident but residents are blaming the nearby tram works for the crash.
Retired shop manager Ivor Travile, of Sidney Road, Beeston, said: "We have had more than enough with everything that is happening in Beeston.
"This accident happened because of bad planning and I am surprised that no one was injured.
"There is not enough room for the buses to get round while the tram work is going on."
Bus user Matt Goold, of Meadow Lane, Beeston, said: "It has been chaotic for weeks in the town and this accident has only confused and annoyed everyone.
"Closing the bus station has caused a lot of hassle for everyone coming to and leaving Beeston."
Since the tram work started, the majority of the dropping-off points at the bus station have been moved.
Resident Susan Buckley of Attenborough Lane, Chilwell, said: "Words cannot describe what we have gone through because of the tram and now this has happened on top of it all.
"I use this bus station regularly and I am surprised that there has not been more accidents because people don't know where they are going from one day to the next."
Nottingham City Transport was unavailable for comment, but other bus operators were quick to act after the accident.
Commercial director Alex Hornby, of Trent Barton, said: "We were made aware of a collision between a bus belonging to another bus company and the bus station building on Thursday evening.
"This necessitated the closure of the bus station and we immediately sent members of our team to the scene to help direct customers to other stops and manage our services during the disruption."
The toilet block that the bus crashed into is owned by Broxtowe Borough Council.
A spokeswoman for the council said: "The Beeston bus station was closed to make safe following an accident on Thursday night.
"The council also needed to check the structural integrity of the toilet block itself before it was reopened."
Police say they were called out to the incident at 8.15pm on Thursday.
