TINA: our new city tram

Our red-beige GTL8 trams will soon be replaced by the new, spacious and equal-level TINA trams built by the Swiss company Stadler. We are in the midst of preparations, both on the design of the TINA and on the adjustments in the city to ensure that accessible trams can run on all routes by 2026. 

Before we can start with the construction, the design of both the interior and exterior must be determined. Some things have already been set, such as the color of the seats. In November 2023, around 1,000 people reviewed a full-size model of half a TINA tram. They also reviewed a number of choices such as the type of stop button, hanging loops, holding bars and the layout of the wheelchair space. By summer 2024, the design of the TINA will be final and Stadler will then start with the construction.

The 56 new trams will flow in from 2026 and will gradually replace the familiar red-beige GTL8 trams.
