Fifteen new three-section Tango NF3 trams, developed by Stadler, have introduced a new level of comfort and safety to urban transport, equipped with amenities for passenger convenience and adapted for people with limited mobility.

In addition to vehicle replacement, Sarajevo is implementing projects to reconstruct tram tracks and expand the transport network.

Funding for these projects comes from international credit funds, including €10 million allocated by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development as part of the “Green Cities” Initiative.

These investments aim to tackle traffic congestion and improve air quality, ultimately enhancing the well-being of city residents.

The total investment of €146 million underscores the Canton government’s commitment to sustainable urban development.
