dbo:abstract
  • Christchurch tramway routes have developed from lines that were first established by a troika of private tramway companies in the latter part of the 19th century, through to a significantly expanded system under the municipal Christchurch Tramway Board, to the City Council-built heritage circuit. These routes have been worked by all three main forms of tramway motive power (horse, steam, electric) and have significantly contributed to the development of Christchurch City in New Zealand's South Island. Currently, tramway routes in Christchurch are limited to the central city heritage circuit and the heritage line at the Ferrymead Heritage Park. A two-stage extension of the heritage circuit has been planned, with the first stage currently under construction. (en)
