As of the middle 2011, trams are one of the basic types of public transportation in the city of Odesa, Ukraine. Odesa is served by 13 regular, and 1 rush hour, tram routes. Electric trams have been operating in Odesa since 1910.[5]
The tram network is laid along mainline streets from the city center, serving as a convenient connection with the more outward neighborhoods of Odesa. System facts are:
As of early 2011, Odesa has 210 Tatra T3 tramcars, 106 of them having been modernized.
In 2006, К-1 tramcars started to be delivered. They are manufactured on Yuzhmash plant in Dnipro. There are also Tatra-Yug trams, manufactured there.
For heritage purposes, there is one pseudo-Nivelles retro tram, which was made out of MTV-82 tram.
The Odesa Tram Network is served by two depots. One is located near the railway station, the other is located in Slobodka (in the western part of the city). A service tram depot (located near "Tovarnaja" station) used to house some of the passenger service routes 1996, but it now houses only service trams.
As of November 2016, the lines in Preobrazhenska Street, Tiraspol Street, and Nizhyn Street were out of service. A new roundabout at the junction of these lines was being constructed, with excavation to a depth of 1 metre for two blocks either side of Preobrazhenska Street. At the bottom of the trench was being poured slab concrete. Track for the roundabout was being fabricated in situ from straight rails. It is estimated that the work would take several more months.
As of November 2016, the track in Novoshepnoy Ryad Street was in poor condition, the asphalt road surface having disappeared where it flanked the Privoz market, pointwork at Preobrazhenska Street was in poor condition. Speed of trams in this street was low on account of the exposed rails, and cars and trucks travelling at walking pace over the rough surface.
As of October 2018, the roundabout in Preobrazhenska Street was in operation, allowing trams to enter and leave in any direction along the streets mentioned previously.
Operational difficulties plague the system. The track and pointwork in Noveshepnoy Street and vicinity are unchanged from 2016. Services along two routes ceased for long periods on the same day in 2018. This is the result of three factors: One is the removal of turn-back facilities that enabled trams to service part of the route when there is a breakdown or accident (example, lines 12 and 3 near Fine Arts Museum). Another is the removal of cross links that would enable a tram to reach a destination via another route when a breakdown occurs (example, Stelov Street). The third is attributable to the continued used of single-ended trams. With a double-ended tram, a turn-back is possible wherever there is a shunt. Single-ended trams need a loop or a turnout to a cusp, to enable the tram to travel in the opposite direction on the other track.
On 21 December 2023, the city received the first of 13 Tatra-Yug K1T306 trams that were ordered in December 2022. The three-section trams are 26 m long and 100% low floor.[6]
