Trams in Adelaide (original) (raw)

About DBpedia

Until 1958, trams formed a network spanning most of Adelaide, with a history dating back to 1878. Adelaide ran horse trams from 1878 to 1914 and electric trams from 1909, but has primarily relied on buses for public transport since the mid-20th century. Electric trams, and later trolleybuses, were Adelaide's main method of public transport throughout the life of the electric tram network. The tram network was progressively closed down through the 1950s with the last lines closing in 1958; the Glenelg tram line was the only line to survive these closures and has remained in operation ever since and has been progressively upgraded and extended since 2005.

dbo:abstract Die Straßenbahn Adelaide besaß in der Vergangenheit ein sehr ausgedehntes Straßenbahnnetz, von dem heute noch eine 15 Kilometer lange Linie von der Innenstadt der australischen Stadt Adelaide zum Küstenvorort Glenelg betrieben wird, die nach ihrem Fahrtziel Glenelg Tram genannt wird. Sie verkehrt im 15-Minuten-Takt und ist Teil des öffentlichen Verkehrssystems Adelaide Metro. Die Fahrt ist auf dem Abschnitt zwischen den Straßen North Terrace und South Terrace in Adelaide sowie entlang der Jetty Road in Glenelg kostenlos. Nur auf kurzen Abschnitten in den Innenstädten von Adelaide und Glenelg verläuft die Trasse im Straßenraum, der Rest verläuft auf einem eigenen Gleiskörper. Historische Bahnen des Typs H aus dem Jahr 1929 haben bis zum Jahr 2006 den gesamten Betrieb der Straßenbahn Adelaide durchgeführt. Im Januar 2006 gingen die ersten modernen Bahnen des Typs Flexity Classic in Betrieb. Heute wird der fahrplanmäßige Betrieb mit elf 30 Meter langen niederflurigen Gelenktriebwagen, die in Deutschland von Bombardier gebaut wurden, durchgeführt. Im April 2007 begann der Bau einer 1,6 Kilometer langen Verlängerung der Strecke vom Victoria Square zur City West, entlang der King William Street und der North Terrace. Der fahrplanmäßige Betrieb auf dieser Erweiterung wurde am 14. Oktober 2007 aufgenommen. Eine neue Brücke über die South Road, die eine bestehende Kreuzung ersetzte, wurde am 15. März 2010 eröffnet. Am 22. März wurde eine weitere 2,8 Kilometer lange Verlängerung von der City West zum Entertainment Centre in Betrieb genommen. Es gibt Planungen, die Straßenbahn weiter nach Port Adelaide, Semaphore, Woodville und West Lakes zu verlängern.

dbp:caption In December 2009, one of Adelaide's 1929-vintage "Glenelg" or "Bay" trams, no. 367, was at the Glengowrie depot with two newcomers: Flexity Classic no. 104 and Alstom Citadis no. 203. No. 367 was one of the last two trams of its type to run in Adelaide, in February 2015. Many were dispersed to museums around Australia – especially South Australia's Tramway Museum, St Kilda – and overseas. (en)
