Why

  1. According to Norrköping municipality, the city's tramway opened on 10 March 1904 and is served by two tram lines, 2 and 3.
  2. According to Lund municipality, traffic on the Lund C to ESS tram started in December 2020, with nine stops and about 14.5 minutes' travel time.
  3. Region Stockholm and Västtrafik both describe tram traffic in their networks, among them Tvärbanan, Nockebybanan and Lidingöbanan in Stockholm and zone A trams in Gothenburg.

Details

In Norrköping the municipality owns the trams and tracks, and Östgötatrafiken is responsible for timetables and running the traffic. Each city has its own ticket system, such as SL in Stockholm and Västtrafik in Gothenburg. For a day trip to Lund, see the Lund day trip guide and Västtrafik transport, and for city basics, see whether Gothenburg is safe.

Tip

Check the local operator's journey planner for tram times, because SL, Västtrafik and Östgötatrafiken each publish their own timetables.

What may differ

Tickets depend on the city: SL covers Stockholm, Västtrafik covers Gothenburg, and Östgötatrafiken is responsible for the timetables in Norrköping.

Common misconception

Stockholm and Gothenburg are the only Swedish cities with trams.

What actually happens

Norrköping has had a tramway since 1904, according to the municipality, and Lund's tram has run since December 2020.
