Causeway trolleybus depot

[tonyp]

Does anybody know whether Causeway was ever a standalone trolleybus depot or did the trolleybuses share a general bus or tram (or both) depot? Any opening and closing dates for this depot and date when trolleybuses started using it?

My memories was that it was separate from the old Causeway bus depot. IIRC, it was situated between between police HQ and the river just past the end of Hay St. The trolley buses would run on to Hay St from the depot.

Thank you, that was the impression I had. There was also a tram depot here I understand - on the same site as the bus depot or another adjacent site? Any information on what year the trolleybus depot actually opened?
