Prague about to expand and modernize its tram network

in #news6 years ago

Hi everyone!

Prague, the capital of my beautiful homeland Czech Republic, is known for being well-covered by various means of public transport. Trams are among the most popular ones as they are fast, reliable and they allow passengers to enjoy the views of the old city streets and architecture.

The good news for all tram fans is that the city will soon expand and modernize its tram fleet. There will be several completely new tram routes in neighborhoods such as Divoka Sarka, Barrandov, Modrany, Podbaba and Suchdol. The Prague Public Transit Company will also buy more units of the newest tram model (Skoda 15T) that comes with free wifi on board.

There are currently more than 800 trams operating in Prague a significant part of which is still made up by old tram models dating back to as early as the 1960s. These trams might look like historic vehicles when compared to the their modern counterparts but what they lack in technological advancement, they easily make up for in their charm and classic look, making them very popular among tourists and photographers.
