Trams testing track extension
Trams testing track extension
From tomorrow (Friday 6
February), the trams will start appearing on the new track
which is an extension of the current route. This extended
route is not yet open to the public, but the trams need to
test the new tracks and undertake driver training before the
official opening of the new route which is planned for
Thursday 12 February. The extended route will include Oxford
Terrace, Cashel Street, High Street to Cathedral Square.
Trams will travel at a maximum speed of 8km/h in Oxford
Terrace south of Hereford Street and in City Mall (Cashel
Street). Drivers will use the trams' lights and bells to
warn of their
approach.
