The wrap highlights the new routes available to local people by showing images of the new trams operating in Market Square, Theatre Square, Beeston Town Centre, Clifton, the QMC and Wilford Toll Bridge, with the tram wrap designed by local agency The Wonderland.

Alstom is also responsible for maintaining all of Nottinghams trams, both the existing designs and also the new Citadis models, at the Wilkinson Street depot.
