InTramCities  with Gordon Stewart

Murcia, Spain : November 29th, 2013
This southern Spanish city only had a short experience of trams but decided to bring them back following the success of a demonstrator line operated along part of Avenida Juan Carlos I. The current 17.5 km long line opened in 2011.
Modern trams run along modern alignments on two radial routes originating at the northern edge of the city centre which afford lots of space for tram stops and tracks. The city has big plans for more lines. The first objective is to penetrate the city centre along Gran Via and link in with the railway station which lies to the south of the centre. Further routes are planned to intersect at the station giving good coverage in all directions. The photo is taken on Avenida Juan Carlos I on the section of route which was originally built as a short demonstration line - a magnificent advert for a modern tramway, which offered free rides throughout and convinced the public and the authorities to proceed with the tramway project
