From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Athens Tram is the current public tram network system serving Athens, Greece. It is owned and operated by Urban Rail Transport (STASY) S.A. (Greek: ΣΤΑΣΥ Α.Ε.). STASY operates a fleet of 25 Alstom Citadis and 35 Sirio vehicles,[1] which serve three tram lines and 48 stops.[2][1] The tram network spans a total length of 27 kilometres (16.8 mi) throughout ten Athenian suburbs.[3] This network runs from Syntagma (central Athens) to the southwestern suburb of Palaio Faliro, where the line splits in two branches: the first runs along the Athens coastline toward the southern suburb of Voula, while the other heads toward the Port of Piraeus. The network covers the majority of the city's Saronic Gulf coastline.
The Athens Tram began operation on 19 July 2004, few weeks prior to the Athens 2004 Olympic Games. An extension of the line from Glyfada to Voula opened in November 2007, while a further extension to the Port of Piraeus was built from 2013 to 2019, though it has not yet opened for service as of February 2021[update].[4]
