Shenyang Modern Tram is a tram network operating in Hunnan New District in southern Shenyang, Liaoning province, People's Republic of China. The tram system mostly uses a traditional overhead line system, but some sections are wireless with the tram running partly on super-capacitor batteries charging at every stop, the first such system in Asia. It is the longest tram system in China.[2]
Shenyang once had the largest tramway network (c. 1925) in China with service completely stopping in 1974. Trams returned in Shenyang with the opening of the Shenyang Modern Tram in 2013. The whole plan of Shenyang Modern Tram is running from Olympic Centre, near Aotizhongxin station of Shenyang Metro Line 2 to Shenfu Xincheng, Expo Centre and Taoxian Airport. The Shenyang tram system is funded by a BT model investment of CNY 4.82 billion by the construction and RATP Dev Transdev Asia, which is a joint venture between Transdev (formerly Veolia Transport) and RATP Dev. The line is operated by the city-owned "Shenyang Hunnan Modern Transport Co., Ltd" (51%) and RATP Dev Transdev Asia (49%).[3][4][5]
