In operation since 1871, the network is about 88 km (55 mi) long,[1] and comprises 10 lines.
The Turin tramway network has 10 lines (for a total of 11 routes):
Of the urban lines, lines 3 and 9 were created as a light rail tram system in the 1980s. Today, line 3 is called a "fully protected" route, while line 9 is considered an ordinary tramway.
Line 4 has characteristics similar to line 3, although another type of tram vehicle is used. In any case, this line also includes long stretches of reserved sections to permit higher speeds.
On line 3, light rail vehicles of the series 7000 were used.
