The new line is planned to be operational by summer 2020, informed Lund Municipality.
The new tram fleet will be equipped with TSA motors. The bidirectional trams operated by Skånetrafiken (Swedish regional operator), will have modern low floors and will have a specific focus on passenger accessibility. The new line will have seven trams which will traverse the line between Lund Cental Station and the Science Village of ESS. The trams will be approximately 33 metres long, will be accessible to people with reduced mobility and will offer ample space for wheelchairs and pushchairs.
