✅ Why a tram could be sustainable and good for Limassol
Lower emissions and energy efficiency: Trams (or light-rail systems) use electric propulsion and steel-on-steel running (wheels on rails), which makes them much more energy efficient than typical bus or car transport.
Reduced traffic congestion & car dependence: A tram can carry many more passengers than a comparable bus, and each tram can effectively replace dozens of private car trips. That means fewer cars on the road, less congestion, and potentially less air pollution and noise.
