Your Complete Area Guide
A well-connected suburb on the Nottingham-Derby border with excellent tram links, good schools, and exciting future development potential.
Heritage
Toton has been shaped by its transport connections. The Toton Sidings, one of the largest railway marshalling yards in Europe, operated here from 1901 until 2019, employing thousands of local residents over the decades.
The arrival of the NET tram in 2015 transformed accessibility, connecting Toton directly to Nottingham city centre and creating new opportunities for residents.
The area was identified as the site for an East Midlands HS2 hub station, and while HS2 plans have changed, significant regeneration is still planned for the area.
