Just had a quick look, didn't know you needed a driving license to drive a tram?

Yes as it is technically in some ways a road vehicle - the signs they follow are in the Highway Code, for example.

Two reasons. There is some street running in Croydon and comes under Highway Code regulations, so the tram requres a driving licence to be held. Also, you will sometimes be reqired to drive a company vehicle to ferry drivers to another location due to engineering works on the system, so again, a driving licence is required.

Hi guys, does anyone know what their shift patterns are like? Are they 4/5 day weeks and if there is lomdon weighting on top of the 40k?


Thanks in advance!

It was first advertised on the 18th Jan, so they probably have enough candidates.
