New trams for Olomouc

This Czech city has placed a CZK 329M contract with Pragoimex for nine air-conditioned EVO1 bogie trams; just the one company responded to the tender, for which the estimated price was CZK 289M.  

 

The price per tram is therefore CZK 35M compared with CZK 27.5M in 2022. Finance will come from the European fund for regional development and the Czech Regional Operational Programme.  

 

Delivery of the 15.1m trams will be within two years. The double-sided but single ended trams will be used back-to-back on the Nové Sady Line.
