Project Detail |
The project concerns the railway installations (power supply, signalling, passengers information systems and telecommunications), plus the architectural works for the 12 tramway stops, the new depot and the necessary rolling stock (6 tram sets, of 5 carriageways each). It is important to note is that the civil works and the track works for this future tramway line are already built.
Objectives
The project supports investments in sustainable urban public transport (new tram line), which are expected to reduce transport externalities such as air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, decrease travel times for the tramway users as well as road traffic congestion in the area, by promoting modal shift from private car users to public transport. In addition, being fully located within a less developed region of the EU, the project supports the strengthening of the EUs economic, social and territorial cohesion.
