- This video will describe the tram system of Łódź, the fourth-largest city in Poland. The network is undergoing massive reconstruction, making it a modern network for the future. The lines presented in the animation will therefore change quite a bit in the future. Most lines meet at the stop Piotrkowska Centrum, a beautiful transfer hub, nicknames unicorn stable by locals.
This video is the 28th episode of the series Urban Transport, with full-on descriptions of various urban public transport networks (mostly in Europe).

I always appreciate the effort you put into pronouncing our goofy language
Thanks! It took quite some tries 😂
same lol
Nice to see you back in Poland. In my adopted home city there has been a lot of modernisation of the tram network too - it’s something happening all over Poland.
Inmediately recognised the central tram station! I have used its' virtual form in Cities Skylines
Nice!!
@@realdronthego And awesome video again! You only release bangers ;) .If you ever have a chance, look into Vitoria, small city in northern Spain (or Basque Country if you prefer it). I think it's a great example of adequate public transport policies, more so considering the city was mostly built in the 50's and 60's, I believe. Opened two tram lines in less than 20 years, has currently at least one electric BRT line and has an idea to restrict vehicle traffic inside the so-called "Super-blocks" and on the brink of having a regional train network! All of that for a city of 180 000 inhabitants Plus, it's really green, and has almost doubled the cyclists percentages in the last times
Spain is doing well on those regards. I will keep it in mind for spring or autumn trips.
when it comes to (not very) building new routes, the line to Konstantynów Łódzki is currently under reconstruction, closed in 2018 and planned to open somewhere in 2024
update: it finally opened on 1st of july
The Piotrkowska Centrum stop, due to its colorful roof is often called Stajnia Jednorożców (Unicorns' staple) by locals. There is even a unicorn statue right next to it!
As a resident of Łódź it could've been nice if during the showing the present route plan there're also a diferently colored parts of temporaly closed routes or maybe recently closed ones (such as suburban lines 43b to Lutomiersk (from Północna to Lutomiersk /John Paul 2 square with length of over 19 km's) and 46 to Ozorków, which was the longest tram line in Poland (in it's last route change it ride it from Stoki to ozorków/cegeilniana with length over 30 km's) to give true look at how big network really is/was.
Polish every good correct name Nice job on it
Thank you!!
Amazing video as usual 😊
Keep up the great work 😊
Thank you!

I visit Łódź 2023 summer city huge problem walking of construction work Whole city was destroy by Construction they fixing The wores stuff Łódź need to fix not only roads and trams system but buildings need additional fix ugly stuff remember times 60s station Łódź fabryczna inside every nice went looking some things done if walk around out side falling down from buildings Łódź need to apply this issue if you walk from Łódź fabryczna to Main Street piotrowska 2km you see I walk mostly time in Łódź see how they need to fix some street was close of huge construction like I said in the beginning bye
I think there are simply many projects happening at the same time. It is good however that Łódź is trying, and reopening one section after the other now. I’d like to come back in some years and see how it changed.
