Without interrupting their work on the traditional weekend, already on Saturday the cars of the Moscow tram route № 20 back on the line. Passengers were taken along the new route. And this is only the first step in adjusting the next group of metropolitan rail routes.

"Twentieth" was changed first

From December 23, 2017 tram route № 20 "Art. Ugreshskaya - Kursk Station" has been seriously updated. It has been switched to daily operation, traffic intervals have been reduced, the last flights began to depart two and a half hours later.

But the main thing is the change of the route. Traffic on the site from the Museum. Andrey Rublev to the MCC Ugreshskaya station filmed. Instead, the carriages are directed along Andronievskiy Proyezd and Volochaevskaya Street to Krasnokazarmennaya Square. Departure from the Kursk railway station daily from 5:36 to 23:36, from Krasnokazarmennaya Square - from 5:48 to 23:48. Traffic intervals are nine minutes, in the early morning and late evening hours - up to 12 minutes.

Route Popularity № 20 decreased markedly a decade and a half ago after the opening of the first stage of the Lublin metro line, which ended in 1999 with the launch of the Dubrovka station. Intervals of traffic on the route in some hours gradually increased to 40 minutes. At the same time, the connection between Volochaevskaya Street and the Kursky railway station and the interchange hub of three stations of the Moscow Metro turned out to be in demand every time it spontaneously arose during temporary changes in tram routes. Local residents have long asked to make a permanent route for them, but they were finally heard only quite recently.

Change of route № 20 is only the first in the already planned chain of optimizations of eight metropolitan tram routes, which have already been approved in the city's route register.

Future plans

It has already been decided that the route № 3 Balaklavsky Ave. - Metro Chistye Prudy" will be extended along Chertanovskaya Street to the terminal station "Akademika Yangelya Street" along the route of night flights No. 3n, plying now six nights a week, except for the night from Sunday to Monday. At the same time, the production of wagons on the route will be stopped. № 16 "St. Academician Yangel - Serpukhov Val.

Mutual exchange of terminus routes №№ 34 16th Park Street - Novogireevo" and 36 "Children's sanatorium - 3rd Vladimirskaya st." Route № 34 will be reduced to the 3rd Vladimirskaya street, and the route № 36 , on the contrary, will be extended to the final station "Novogireevo".

To the metro station "Semyonovskaya" instead of the metro station "Partizanskaya" it is planned to reduce the tram route № 32 "Etc. Enthusiasts - Metro Partizanskaya. A route № 12 "Etc. Enthusiasts - 2nd st. Mashinostroeniya, on the contrary, will continue along the Entuziastov Highway, ave. Budyonny, Izmailovsky highway, st. Izmailovsky Val, Shcherbakovskoy st., 2nd st. Izmailovsky menagerie to the metro station "Partizanskaya".

Closer to the lobby of the Sokolniki metro station, where it was in early December, cars will be able to drive up after changing the route № 25 Ostankino - Sokolnicheskaya Zastava. The route route will be extended along the 2nd Polevoy lane, st. Stromynka, Babaevskaya st. and st. Matrosskaya Silence to Bolshoy Matrossky lane. with a U-turn through the tram depot them. Rusakov.

Somewhat straighten the route № 46 "Metro Bulvar Rokossovsky - Metro Proletarskaya". He will cancel the check-in on Malaya Semyonovskaya St., Semyonovsky per. and Izmailovskaya st. when going to the Proletarskaya metro station.

What else is being prepared?

Mass deliveries of three-section Vityaz-M 71-931M carriages, of which there were already 110 in Moscow by the end of 2017, encourage the capital's transport workers to revise the route network of the Moscow tram. Spacious wagons are directed to routes with a large passenger flow. After the complete transfer of the tram depot to them. Bauman to serve the Vityaz, they will also begin to enter other depots - Oktyabrskoye and them. Rusakov. The isolated network of the Krasnopresnensky depot, which previously received 70 Pesa wagons, will remain unchanged for the time being. And on the main network, the appearance of new cars will cause inevitable changes in routes. Some of them will even change the depot of registration - it will depend on the type of rolling stock.

Unsuitable for operation "Vityaz" is the oldest surviving tram depot named after. Apakova will continue to work with traditional single-section wagons and wagon couplers based on the Tatra T3 model. They will also work with "short" cars at the site of the Tram Repair Plant that is being returned to work.

And for work with new modern cars, another territory occupied by the Logistics Base of the State Unitary Enterprise Mosgortrans on Ugreshskaya Street will be adapted. An enterprise for the maintenance and repair of trams will appear here, with a platform for settling 150 three-section trams. Financing of the project is included in the Targeted investment program of the city of Moscow. A tender for the design of a new transport facility has already been announced.

Mass production of three-section wagons with increased current consumption for the capital requires a stable power supply and modernization of the contact network. To determine the "weak points" "Mosgortrans" ordered work on the calculation of the power supply of the contact network. However, not a single applicant showed up for the competition held in December. The metropolitan tram operators revealed their plans for further change of routes to the participants of the competition. All calculations needed to be done for a promising route network, which even included some sections that were just being prepared for construction.

So, according to preliminary information, from the side of Academician Yangel Street to Biryulyovo-Zapadnoye they are going to redirect the route instead of the Moskvoretsky market № 1 , and to connect with areas closer to the center, extend the route from Balaklavsky Prospekt № 49 .

They want to leave routes unchanged No. 4 (right And left), 7, 11, 13, 14, 26, 29, 35, 36, 37, 39, 47. Routes may be redundant in the new network Nos. 2, 9, 20, 32, 34k, 38, 40, 45, B– they are compensated by other variable routes. Some of them will almost double in size.

The longest (length 26.9 km) should be the route № 12 . It will connect 16th Parkovaya Street and Cheryomushki, completely absorbing the route № 38 . A little shorter (23 km long) in the planned network will be the route № 25 . According to preliminary information, in this form it will connect Medvedkovo and Kursk railway station, passing through Oleniy Val Street, Baumanskaya and Volochaevskaya streets and absorbing part of the route routes No. B And 45 .

The length of the route will change slightly № 8 – from 9.9 to 9.4 km. Previously, it was planned to lead it from the side of 3rd Vladimirskaya Street instead of Novokonnaya Square to the Kursk railway station along the restored one, but the decision to revive this line has so far been blocked by local public figures.

Route № 19 from Kalanchevskaya Street instead of Novovorotnikovsky Lane will be directed to Tverskaya Zastava, and the route will be extended along its old route № 50 . Such measures will allow you to refuse to use the route № 9 . Route № 24 from the Kursk railway station instead of Novogireev will follow only to the passage of Enthusiasts. The route will be further shortened № 34 - instead of the previous 17.7 km from its route, only 8.06 km will be left, which is approximately equal to the distance along the route of the current route No. 34k from 16th Parkovaya Street to Malaya Semyonovskaya Street. Routes will be longer №№ 43 (18.2 km instead of 15.4 km), 46 (17.0 km instead of 16.7) and A(16.0 km instead of 10.2).

Note that on the existing network, Annushka will not be able to increase in size so much. The location of all existing tram rings allows you to organize a route with either a greater or lesser length. Apparently, the plans for the legendary metropolitan route were also drawn up taking into account new construction (the line on Akademika Sakharov Avenue, or the turn from the center to the Novospassky Bridge on Paveletskaya Square).

Vityaz-M cars are going to fully equip the routes №№ 3, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 17, 26, 36, 37, 39, 50 . The remaining routes on the main network will continue to be served by single cars. And only on the route № 1 keep the work of couplers of two cars of the Tatra T3 type according to the system of many units.

However, it is known that the more long-term plans are, the more various changes can occur with their implementation. Therefore, with greater certainty, we can expect in the coming months only those changes that are already included in the city register.

Recall that in September, trams to Tverskaya Zastava and three auxiliary tram routes were opened in Moscow.

Tram is one of the types of public transport in cities. Refers to rail vehicles operating on electric traction. The name "tram" comes from the English combination of the words "car" (trolley) and "way". Trams move along certain routes and only along those streets where special tram rails are laid. The voltage of the overhead contact network is used as a power source.

What is a tram?

The tram is one of the first types of urban transport. It appeared in the first half of the 19th century. The first wagons were horse-drawn. Electric traction began to be used only at the end of the century before last. Berlin became the first city where the tram became widespread. In the first half of the 20th century, there was an active development of tram transport, but after the Second World War it became less popular. In the 70s and 80s of the 20th century, there was a kind of renaissance, which was associated with technical improvements and the fight against air pollution. Recently, the popularity of the tram in the world has declined sharply.

Trams are electric, horse-drawn, diesel, gasoline, steam, etc., but it is the first option that is the main one. The rest of the species are not currently in use.

Tram station

This is a special organized place that is intended for boarding and disembarking people from public transport, in this case a tram. In addition to the sign indicating the tram stop, it is equipped with a canopy and benches. It may also contain a map of tram routes, schedules and numbers of cars stopping on it.

In large cities, outdoor advertising is a common attribute, and there may also be a ticket point. Stopping cars in such places is prohibited.

stop sign

The sign is installed in order to increase the awareness of drivers and passengers. There are certain numbers on the road sign of the tram stop - 5.17. Slightly different road rules apply to such stops. This applies to the rules of traffic rules for the passage of tram stops. The fact is that the tram can stop right in the middle of the street, which is used for the movement of cars. In this case, a yellow zigzag line is drawn on the road near the tracks. It provides that the driver, in the event of a tram stop with passengers, must wait until they get out and cross the road, and only then the car can move on.

At the same time, it can move slowly if people are not walking, but it will be safer to wait until the process of disembarking / disembarking passengers is completed.

The rest of the rules are the same as for other public transport stops.

Tram in Moscow

The tram appeared in Moscow in 1899. In 2018, 48 routes and 5 depots operate in the city. In total, there are 2 tram networks: the main and northwestern. There is no rail connection between them. The total length of tram tracks in Moscow is 418 kilometers. The length was slightly less in 1926 (395 km).

The tram network reached its greatest development in the early 1930s, when the routes of this type of transport covered almost the entire city. Including its outskirts. In 1934, the tram was considered the most important means of transport in Moscow. Of the four million urban population, 2.6 million used trams to get around. The total length of the lines was approximately 560 km.

Since 1935 there has been a diversification of urban transport. At first, the reduction of tram lines was associated with the development of the subway, and then the trolleybus. Some lines were moved to secondary streets. In particular, the tracks that passed near the Kremlin and part of the tracks leading to the city outskirts were removed. In the 1950s, the dismantling of tram tracks on part of the routes was associated with the construction of highways. In the late 60s and early 70s, the closure of the lines led to the separation of its northwestern part from the main tram network.

The removal of routes continued into the 80s, but it was combined with the construction of new sections.

The period of market relations

Since the mid-90s of the 20th century, due to the expansion of the road network and the increase in the number of road transport, there has been an active reduction in the number of tram routes in Moscow. The total length of the tracks decreased from 460 to 420 km. In the late 1990s, only 150,000 people used the tram as their main means of transport. In the mid-2000s, its overall share in urban passenger traffic was about 5 percent. Nevertheless, in some areas it was the main mode of transport.

During the reign of Sergei Sobyanin, since 2012, the tram network began to expand. Some routes have been opened, extended or restored. In 2017-2018 new lines are introduced. The tram fleet is being substantially updated.

Features of the Moscow tram network

The tram network of the city of Moscow is loosely connected to each other parts, one of which is completely separated from the rest. There are 4 such parts in total: Apakovskaya, Yauzskaya, Krasnopresnenskaya and Artamonovskaya.

The oldest stop in Moscow

During the existence of the Moscow tram, the stops have changed and changed their appearance many times. One of the few exceptions is the Krasnostudenchesky proezd station. There is a reconstructed 19th-century pavilion here, dating back to when there was a real village in the area.

Now around the high-rise building, and in the pavilion itself there are kiosks. It will probably soon be replaced (or has already been replaced) with a regular stop, which will lead to the loss of this object.

I found that if you have an unlimited travel card for the metro and ground transport, the metro is not always the fastest and most successful way to get around Moscow. It is more convenient to combine all transports. Let's see how the tram compares favorably with its transport counterparts.

Study period: it stretched from 05/10/2017 to 07/11/2017 (I didn’t study the way to Krylatskoye, then I’ll ride, not on purpose anymore)

tram pros

• Sometimes convenient routes. Tram tracks can sometimes connect the points you need with a shorter route.
• Movement stability. Trams do not stand in traffic jams, they have separate tracks. Sometimes they stand at traffic lights, but in general they are more in motion
• Aesthetics. The metro travels underground, where it is not as interesting outside the window as outside the tram window, especially in clear weather
• Comfort. A tram rides more smoothly than a trolleybus or bus. Generally.
• Railway. For railway lovers: the tram is more railway than the subway
• Environmental friendliness. The tram is healthier: it runs on electricity, so it does not stink of gasoline and exhaust gases

Tram route map

The most interesting routes for me:

They turned out to be B, 3, 7, 24, 46, 50, 11-half from Ostankino, 6 from Sokol to the Moscow Canal, 27, 17, and, judging by the water capacity around, like 31, 28 in Krylatskoye (but this is not to be checked I'll leave it to those who wish).

Moscow tram routes:

Tram A - Metro "Chistye Prudy" - Kaluga Square

Center of Moscow, interesting. But I got it during road repairs. It happened that it was necessary to stand in a traffic jam with cars.

Tram B - Sokolnicheskaya Zastava - Kursk Station

Interesting. to the Kursk railway station.

Tram 1 - Moskvoretsky Market - Academician Yangel Street

Tram 2 - Metro "Semenovskaya" - Children's health resort

Subjectively, I did not like the route very much. And chatting in the composition. I understood why the corners of the trams are cut, so that the cabin and the stern are narrow - when cornering, oncoming trams would collide with corners if the trains were rectangular. The final stop "Children's Sanatorium" is perfect for starting a bike trip around Losiny Ostrov.

Tram 3 (the longest route at night 18.7 km)- Metro "Chistye Prudy" - Balaklavsky Prospekt (at night - Academician Yangel Street)

Open 24/7, runs at night. Today it is the longest tram route in Moscow at night: the travel distance is 18.7 km, the total time (including the night interval) is 1 hour 22 minutes.

Tram 4L - Metro "Ulitsa Podbelskogo" - Sokolnicheskaya outpost - ring

Tram 4pr - Metro "Ulitsa Podbelskogo" - Sokolnicheskaya outpost - ring

Tram 6 - Sokol metro station - Bratsevo ( Tram 6k - Vostochny Bridge - Bratsevo)

Modern new compositions with harmonica. From Sokol to the Moscow Canal is interesting. In Tushino already monotonous and long rides.

Tram 7 - Metro station "Rokossovsky Boulevard" (until 2014 "Podbelskogo Street") - Novoslobodskaya metro station

Rides smoothly, especially the first half of the way from metro station Rokossovsky Boulevard.

Tram 8 - Novokonnaya Square - 3rd Vladimirskaya Street

Tram 9 - Metro "Belorusskaya" - MIIT

Tram 10 - Metro "Schukinskaya" - Tallinn street

Tram 11 - Ostankino - 16th Parkovaya street

The first half is interesting, where there are small streets and Izmailovsky Park. In a straight long Pervomaiskaya street is no longer particularly interesting.

Tram 12 - Passage of Enthusiasts - 2nd Mashinostroeniya Street

From Highway Enthusiasts to Dubrovka.

Tram 13 - Kalanchevskaya street - Children's sanatorium

It’s also not very interesting, it goes along a straight big street to 3 railway stations.

Tram 14 - Kaluga Square - Metro "Universitet"

Tram 15 - Metro "Sokol" - Tallinn street

Tram 16 - Serpukhovsky Val Street - Academician Yangel Street

Tram 17 - Ostankino - Medvedkovo

Nice route with new trains. I rode sitting sideways, as in the subway. Comfortable, you can do business on the road.

Tram 19 - Kalanchevskaya street - Metro "Novoslobodskaya"

Tram 20 - Kursky railway station - Ugreshskaya street

Tram 21 - Metro "Schukinskaya" - Tallinn street

Tram 23 - Metro "Sokol" - Mikhalkovo

From the Kursk railway station I drove back to Lefortovo Park.

Tram 25 - Ostankino - Sokolnicheskaya Zastava

Tram 26 - Kaluga Square - Metro "Universitet"

Residential areas are not very interesting. The tram was not very new, although it has electricity, but it smells of technical substances, which makes you sick and nauseous.

Tram 27 - Metro "Voikovskaya" - Metro "Dmitrovskaya"

Nice route. There is greenery, the streets are small, not along the main road.

Tramway 28 - Metro "Sokol" - Marshal Zhukov Avenue

Tram 29 - Children's sanatorium - Bogorodskoe

Tram 30 - Mikhalkovo - Tallinn street

Tram 31 - Metro "Voykovskaya" - Marshal Zhukov Avenue

Tramway 32 - Passage of Enthusiasts - Metro "Partizanskaya"

Tram 33 - Metro "Rokossovsky Boulevard" - Sokolniki Zastava

Tram 34 - 16th Parkovaya Street - Novogireevo

Tramway 34k - 16th Parkovaya Street - Semenovskaya metro station

Tram 35 - Novokonnaya Square - Nagatino

Fine.

Tram 36 - Children's sanatorium - 3rd Vladimirskaya street

Tram 37 - Kalanchevskaya street - Novogireevo

Tramway 38 - Proletarskaya metro station - Cheryomushki

Tram 39 - Metro "Chistye Prudy" - Metro "Universitet"

Tram 43 - Metro "Semyonovskaya" - Ugreshskaya street

Tram 45 - Sokolnicheskaya Zastava - Novokonnaya Square

Tram 46 - Metro "Rokossovsky Boulevard" - Metro "Proletarskaya"

Pleasantly from Ilyich Square to Proletarskaya - such a calm area.

Tram 47 - Kaluga Square - Nagatino

Tram 47k - Lower boilers - Nagatino

Tram 49 - Balaklavsky prospect - Nagatino

Tram 50 - Kalanchevskaya street - Passage of Enthusiasts

It's more interesting here. In general, routes along small streets are more interesting and beautiful. Look for those.

Results: Summing up, I will note that tram riding is a pleasant thing from time to time. They are generally smoother, especially in the north, where there are new trains. At first, I assumed that trams would be faster to travel. It turned out that this is not so. In most cases, the meter will come out faster. Also, the terrestrial audience is more cheerful and positive than the crowds in the subway.
