    Calling Toronto Canada. Building a 19 kilometre tram line since 2011, that has not opened yet.

    Donald Trump has responded, stating that he is completely against bridges for the trams.

      Not surprising, Donald Trump hates trams people.

    It’s a tram/light rail project meant to connect a large island in Eastern Helsinki with downtown. The most significant part are 3 new bridges that only carry trams, cyclists and pedestrians.

    The tram will start operation in 2027, but the bridges are opened for pedestrian traffic as they are completed. The next one should be finished later this summer.

    Here’s a short video of the project: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KTW2VIf5k0I

      That’s really cool. Great to see non-motor transport being prioritised. Looks like it’ll make a significant difference to people trying to get between those two locations. Good job, Helsinki 👍

        No motors, gotta push the tramway yourself 😉
