Recent Tramway Plans in St. Petersburg and Brooklyn





These two plans came to me today.  Plans for a Brooklyn and Queens tramway along the waterfront is being studied by a private corporation.

My friend from St. Petersburg sent me this two maps dealing with tramway expansion in that city.

Comments to photos: First two out of planned thirteen.
Vsevolojsk: Fast connection to the automobile plant through residential/field areas, mostly surface but some are elevated, see a black line.

Sertolovo: Fast connection to the industrial area covering new residential developments along a highway and connected to existing network via overpass. Most are elevated tracks, see a black line





Nice maps.  I believe they deal with expansion to the airport.  According to Igor, one of the lines will have elevated and tunnel sections and will operate like a rapid transit line.
