The tram stop is the terminus of line 1 of the NET, to Hucknall via Chilwell, Beeston and the centre of Nottingham. The stop comprises a pair of side platforms flanking the twin terminal tracks, with one of the platforms being long enough to accommodate, if necessary, two trams. Trams run at frequencies that vary between four and eight trams per hour, depending on the day and time of day. An hourly bus connects the tram stop to the centres of Toton and Stapleford.[1][2]

The Toton Lane stop opened on 25 August 2015, along with the rest of NET's phase two.[4]
