===Public transportation===

[[Public transport]]ation in the city is organized in several layers: the inner parts of the city are mostly covered by [[tram]]s, the outer city areas, and closer suburbs are linked with buses and rapid transit [[Zagreb Commuter Rail|commuter rail]].

The public transportation company [[Zagrebački električni tramvaj|ZET]] (''Zagrebački električni tramvaj'', Zagreb Electric Tram) operates trams, all inner bus lines, and most of the suburban bus lines, and it is subsidized by the city council.

The national rail operator [[Croatian Railways]] (''Hrvatske željeznice'', HŽ) runs a network of urban and suburban train lines in the metropolitan Zagreb area and is a [[government-owned corporation]].

The [[Zagreb Funicular|Zagreb funicular]] (''uspinjača'') in the historic part of the city is a [[tourist attraction]].

Consequently, the prices significantly dropped whereas the service was immensely improved so the popularity of taxis in Zagreb has been increasing.

Zagreb has an extensive [[tram]] network with 15 day and 4 night lines covering much of the inner- and middle-suburbs of the city. The first tram line was opened on 5 September 1891 and trams have been serving as a vital component of Zagreb mass transit ever since. Trams usually travel at speeds of {{cvt|30|-|50|km/h|0|abbr=off}}, but slow considerably during [[rush hour]]. On narrower streets the tracks are either shared with car traffic or separated by a painted yellow line, which can still be used by taxis, buses and emergency vehicles, whereas on larger avenues the tracks are situated inside [[Reserved track|green belts]].

<!-- NEXT PARAGRAPH COMMENTED OUT BECAUSE THESE ARE NO REAL PROJECTS AT THIS MOMENT
Trams connect almost all parts of the city, and a number of new lines have been recently proposed, including to "[[Arena Zagreb|Arena]]", handball stadium in construction, to Vrapce, and [[Zagreb Airport]], the main airport in Zagreb located in the suburb of [[Pleso]]. -->
An ambitious program, which entailed replacing old trams with the new and modern ones built mostly in Zagreb by companies [[KONČAR Group|Končar elektroindustrija]] and, to a lesser extent, by [[TŽV Gredelj]], has recently been finished. The new "[[CROTRAM|TMK 2200]]", trams by the end of 2012 made around 95% of the fleet.<ref name=new_series>{{cite web |url=http://www.zet.hr/vijesti/novosti/predstavljen-71-niskopodni-tramvaj.aspx |title=Predstavljen 71. niskopodni tramvaj |access-date=8 January 2008 |date=27 December 2007 |publisher=[[Zagrebački električni tramvaj]] (ZET) |language=hr |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071231084927/http://www.zet.hr/vijesti/novosti/predstavljen-71-niskopodni-tramvaj.aspx |archive-date=31 December 2007 |url-status=dead}}</ref>

<!--A second [[light-rail]] or [[metro]] system was proposed in January 2007. The system was envisioned with five lines; three running west-east, and two running north-south converging in the city center. All lines were planned to go underground in the city center. It is unknown whether it will be built or not.-->

====Suburban rail network====
{{main|Zagreb Commuter Rail}}

The commuter rail network in Zagreb has existed since 1992. In 2005, suburban rail services were increased to a 15-minute frequency serving the middle and outer suburbs of Zagreb, primarily in the east–west direction and to the southern districts. This has enhanced the commuting opportunities across the city.<ref name=suburban_rail>{{cite web |url=http://www.24sata.hr/index.php?cmd=show_clanak&tekst_id=73771 |title=Zagreb kupuje 18 vlakova za brži prigradski promet |date=1 August 2008 |last=Vojković |first=Ana Marija |access-date=8 December 2008 |language=hr |work=[[24 sata (Croatia)|24 sata]] |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110928005631/http://www.24sata.hr/index.php?cmd=show_clanak&tekst_id=73771 |archive-date=28 September 2011}}</ref>

A new link to the nearby town of [[Samobor]] has been announced and is due to start construction in 2014. This link will be [[standard gauge|standard-gauge]] and tie in with normal [[Croatian Railways]] operations. The previous narrow-gauge line to Samobor called ''[[Samoborček]]'' was closed in the 1970s.<ref name="samoborček">{{cite journal |url=http://193.198.60.202/komunalni/arhiva/362/str11.pdf |title=Uskoro Samoborček i novi prigradski vlakovi |language=hr |date=28 November 2007 |access-date=31 July 2008 |journal=Zagrebački Komunalni Vjesnik |issue=362 |page=11 |issn=1845-4968 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080910055608/http://193.198.60.202/komunalni/arhiva/362/str11.pdf |archive-date=10 September 2008}}</ref>
