The depot has sufficient stabling for up to 24 tram sets, and a double-track workshop with all required facilities to perform almost all maintenance. Additionally, system control room is located within the building, as well as a base for the British Transport Police to monitor the network.[1]

In December 2025, the upgrades were completed on the depot that eliminated the use of fossil fuels in its operations, with the installation of solar panels, electric heaters, and heat pumps to replace gas powered boilers.[2][3][4]
