If Kolkata ever expands its Tram network, Salt Lake–New Town should be the first choice. Wide roads can easily accommodate dedicated tram lanes and public transport demand is still very high. Bidhan Nagar Terminus can be served as a extension to connect Old with New Kolkata.
Encouraging words from BJP MLA @swapan55 at #Tramjatra2026.
He stated that Kolkata’s trams should not be reduced to a mere heritage symbol but retained as a vital mode of urban transport. He also emphasized that a future government should look at integrating and modernizing it.
appealed to NITI Aayog for policy-level intervention from the Government of India to support the revival, modernization, and expansion of Kolkata’s tramways.
As India's only surviving tram system, Kolkata Trams deserve national recognition as a sustainable, low-carbon transport!
