Oradea tram lines
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
1R, 1N, 2, 3R, 3N are tram transport lines located in Oradea. Lines 1 and 3 run together in a city loop, while Line 2 joins part of this loop in part of its journey. All major parts of the city except the Dealul Viilor are served by trams. Trams do not actually run in the city centre, since this is a beautiful Baroque area with narrow streets. They do, however, run on the border of the city in a loop, and then continue through to all the residential areas.
[edit] Tram Line 1
Line 1 red (1R) and 1 black (1N) (completes the circuit the other way around)) runs from Sinteza Factory, which is located in the industrial west of Oradea, very close to the township of Borş and the Hungarian border, via the quarter of Rogerius, the central railway station, the city centre and then loops back to Rogerius.
[edit] Tram Line 2
Runs from Ioşia quarter via the southern city centre and the heart of the city (Unirii Square) to Cantemir quarter and then Nufărul, having almost the same route as tram 4R and 4N. This is probably the most important route.
[edit] Tram Line 3
Line 3 red (3R) and 3 black (3N) (completes the circuit the other way around) runs from Nufărul and then does the city loop from the Civic Centre onwards, terminating back at the Civic Centre near the main market.
Line 3 was called Line 4 before 2004, and there was no route named Line 3. However, in order to make the line order more logical, Line 4 was renamed Line 3 in 2004. Previously a Line 5 existed but it was put out of use due to the fact that it covered almost the same areas as tram 1N and 3N.
