context_page_description: The Tampere light rail or Tampere tramway is a public transport system under construction in Tampere, Finland. Studies on the viability of a light rail system in Tampere have been conducted since 2001 as parts of regional plans for public transport alongside heavy rail and bus solutions. In November 2016, the Tampere city council approved the plans to construct the 330-million-euro system, aiming at a 2021 completion date for the first phase, and 2024 for the second.
  Unlike Turku, another Finnish city that is planning a new light rail system, Tampere has not had a previously existing tram or light rail system. The construction of a tram system in Tampere was seriously studied between the years 1907 and 1929, but left unrealised due to the high price of constructing such a system.
context_section_description: Škoda Transtech will build the rolling stock for Tampere light rail (Artic X34). The design of the trams was finalized in 2018.
