Košice Considers Return of Tram Service to Main Street After 40-Year Absence
Share:
The city of Košice is preparing to modernize its city center and is considering the reintroduction of tram service to Hlavná ulica (Main Street), which would mark the return of electric streetcars to the historic thoroughfare after a 40-year hiatus. The proposal is part of broader urban development plans aimed at revitalizing the downtown area of Slovakia's second-largest city. Košice, located in eastern Slovakia, previously operated tram lines through its main commercial district before the service was discontinued in the 1980s, making this potential restoration a significant infrastructure development that could transform public transportation in the city center.
