Notts lost 7-110 during the afternoon session and didn't look long for this world. But skipper Haseeb Hameed and Brett Hutton had other ideas.
Their ninth-wicket partnership is currently worth 85 runs and they have steered Notts to two extra batting points in the process.
Back in April Durham's bowlers could only look on as Josh Tongue and Lyndon James put on a ninth-wicket stand of 96 at TRent Bridge, something which would prove costly later in the game.
Hutton now has 26 and Hameed 168. The new ball has just been taken, but could these two see the day out for the visitors? There are 16 overs left today.
The aim of the work is to make Durham's bus stops "safer, more accessible and more welcoming".

Durham only took one wicket before lunch, with Notts 133-1 at the break. But closing in to tea they are now seven down.
Codi Yusuf has taken four of the wickets to fall this afternoon, as he saw off Freddie McCann for 26 and Joe Clarke for one. McCann was caught behind while Clarke was bowled.
He also claimed the wickets of Kyle Vereynne for 41 and Lyndon James for 21. They were caught behind too.
Brydon Carse saw off Jack Haynes for one. He was caught and bowled. Meanwhile Liam Patterson-White was bowled for a third-ball duck by George Drissell.
At the other end Haseeb Hameed has led a bit of a charmed life. The inside edge of his bat has been in regular use as he's struggled to time the ball. He's on 108 but has nearly chopped on a number of times.
Kevin Wood, 38, struck the victim 50 times with punches, kicks, and beer cans, police say.

Durham only took one wicket in the morning session, as Notts reached the lunch break on 133-1.
That was from 29 overs of play. But by the time they reached the end of the 35th they were four down!
Codi Yusuf had Freddie McCann caught down the leg side by the keeper on 26. In his next over he bowled Joe Clarke for one.
Brydon Carse then showed great reactions to remove Jack Haynes for one. He was caught and bowled from a delivery which came back off the toe of the bat.
Carse has been bowling well in his first game of the season and in the last over he nearly had Haseeb Hameed three balls in a row.
The first of them whistled past off stump. There was little in it. The next two were played onto the back foot and ricocheted away to safety.
