====Tram network==== {{main|Trams in Zagreb}} {{multiple image | caption_align = center | align = right | direction = vertical | image1 = A Crotram TMK 2200 at Glavni Kolodvor.jpg | caption1 = [[Trams in Zagreb]] | width2 = 200 | image2 = ZG train and tram.jpg | caption2 = [[Zagreb Commuter Rail]] }} 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> <!-- NEXT PARAGRAPH COMMENTED OUT BECAUSE THESE ARE NO REAL PROJECTS AT THIS MOMENT --> <!--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.-->
