Subject: Cargo trams approved for Amsterdam!!

 

Cargo tram -

Amsterdam regional officials have voted to allow private firm Citycargo

to run freight tram services in the city from 2008. The company, which

says it will operate 50 trams, claims the trams will keep some 5,000

trucks a day out of the city centre so reducing air pollution.

 

[There was a pilot earlier in the year... and then it needed to be

evaluated....]

Je remonte ce sujet (je sais, il est vieux!) parce que je viens de tomber sur ça : http://www.cent...o-amsterdam.pdf qui laisse sous-entendre que le projet a été abandonné faute de financements.

Dommage, c'était le projet de tramway FRET le plus ambitieux en Europe...
