Vitebsk's New Trams: A Modern Upgrade for Public Transit
Vitebsk Unveils Modern Trams: Low Floors, Wi-Fi, and Enhanced Accessibility Vitebsk, Belarus, May 28, 2025 – Vitebsk's public transportation system received a significant upgrade today with the introduction of two new trams. These modern vehicles boast several features designed to improve passenger experience and accessibility. The most striking feature is the low-floor design. "This low floor is a game changer," said one Vitebsk resident after boarding one of the new trams. "It makes getting on and off so much easier, especially for people with mobility issues." The low floor, combined with four doors instead of the usual two, significantly reduces boarding and alighting times. Beyond accessibility, the new trams offer modern amenities. Each tram is equipped with air conditioning for passenger comfort, an automatic fire suppression system for safety, USB charging ports for electronic devices, and even Wi-Fi connectivity. These features are a welcome addition to the city's public transportation infrastructure. The launch of these new trams marks a positive step forward for Vitebsk's public transportation, enhancing both accessibility and the overall passenger experience.
