Old Market Square (known locally as 'Slab Square' in honour of its current covering of concrete paving slabs) is the most central stop. It is in a high profile position right in front of the Council House, and the Nottingham City Transport (NCT)/NET information centre is next to the northbound platform. It is also an important interchange point, with many NCT bus services leaving from stops around the square

Overall view of Old Market Square, showing the location of the tram stop in relation to the Council House and the square itself. There is plenty of foot traffic at this point, but despite some public concern over safety NET has proven once again that light rail can share space with pedestrians without any significant problems. Another example of trams interacting with pedestrians is at Market Street in Manchester
