New tram lines may not open until after Easter as the project faces further delays.

Sources have told the Construction Enquirer that an Easter handover date is expected from construction firm Vinci once final testing is complete.

The lines, which will go through Clifton and Beeston, were originally due to be open by the end of 2014, but contractors Taylor Woodrow Alstom admitted it would be early next year before they were running. 

The deputy leader of Nottingham City Council, Graham Chapman, told The Post, there had "been rumours" about the delays and the council "best get out a statement" to clear up the timeline. 

But speaking on BBC Radio on Tuesday morning, he said: "All I know is that it [the delay] is going to be lengthy. We are not very happy about it. The contractors are ultimately responsible for it."

We contacted Taylor Woodrow Alstom but had not received a response at the time of publication.
