Blackpool Tramway

The Blackpool Tramway runs from Fleetwood to Starr Gate via the Blackpool promenade.  It is the only ‘first generation’ tramway to survive in the UK, and in 1885 became the first electric tramway in the country.  A route of 18km survives.  The system will change dramatically when a fleet of 16 modern light rail vehicles are delivered and largely replace the ‘heritage’ fleet of single- and double-deck trams now in use.

The tramway is operated by Blackpool Borough Transport.
