- Less than 3 years ago, Tampere opened its new tram system. After construction started in 2017, in August 2021, the system was opened. Only last year, the extension to Santalahti was inaugurated, and a further extension is set to open in January 2025. Tampere is one of quite a lot of cities building a completely new tram system from scratch. The trams used are the magnificent Artic X34s, built by Škoda Transtech.
This video is the 34th episode of the series Urban Transport, with full-on descriptions of various urban public transport networks (mostly in Europe).

Well done, Tampere. Something that Vilnius could easily have if not for our lack of vision and backward politicians.
Exactly! Tampere shows it can be done!
It's great that Tampere decided to build a tram network! Beautiful trams running very frequently. The city also looks really nice and modern. Great video as always!
Indeed, very good execution! Thank you!!
The routing of lines 1 and 3 was actually changed this summer. Before this line 1 went from Kaupin Kampus (shown as TAYS) to Sorin Aukio, and line 3 from Hervanta to Santalahti. This was done in preparation of extending the line from Sorin Aukio south to Pirkkala and East from TAYS to Linnainmaa.
Also TAYS stands for TAmpereen Yliopistollinen Sairaala (in english Tampere University Hospital)
Yes, even some older parts of websites were not yet updated 😁
Really like that you cover so many underrepresented systems. These trams look great (like all Škoda trams, IMO)- especially when they get up to speed.
Thank you! Yes, they are very well designed!
Remember traveling in 2010 to Tampere and wishing that city has any sort of rail public transport. Finally! :)
Example for many other cities, that do not have something yet
They desided not to use same numbers in bus lines and tram lines. So those tram lines 1 and 3 are replacing bus lines 1 and 3.
Ah I see! Thank you for the addition!
I am here now, einjoying these trams :) A good service.
Nice! Have a good time!
Please make an update on daugavpils trams! Pretty much the whole system has been renewed, the new route 5 has been opened and all the stops have been modernised aswell the new locally built trams are running!
I have it in my mind!
They look so good and what a system to be, I have high hopes for their system!
Exactly, a lot of good stuff happening. Hopefully the extensions will get approved by both municipality councils!
Was waiting for thsi video and I'm not disappointed :) Gotta properly visit Tampere one day
Thank you! And yes, Tampere is definitely worth a visit!
Wonderful video!
I love the tram system there, it is a wonderful combination of trams and light rail.
Maybe for the future: next year, Düsseldorf (Germany) is opening its light rail section to the airport. Maybe a video could be a possibility then
Thank you! This system is very good indeed!
About next year, my plan is slowly getting fuller 😁
Good job 🤩 Waiting for the videos from Italy !!!😁
Thank you!! 😁 They will come for sure 😉
Fantastic work as usual, no doubt! I am very looking forward to the video from Helsinki!❤
Thank you!! The video of Helsinki will come later this year 😁
new tram systems have very big advantage in terms of vehicles because they dont need to adjust the length, width or space between boogies of their trams to some old parts of the infrastructure. these skodas x34 would be great for example to brnos line 8 (where is running its little version skoda 45t) but they wouldnt fit in some stops or in some parts of tracks in curves😥
Indeed, although the 45Ts are also very good trams. I really liked their ride quality as well. It is very good that Brno is getting more of them!
