context_page_description: AB Stockholms Spårvägar is a name used by two different Swedish limited companies operating public transport in Stockholm, the capital city of Sweden.
  The first company was founded in 1915 and owned by the City of Stockholm to coordinate and operate public transport within the City. In 1967 the public transport in the entire Stockholm County was coordinated and the company changed its name to Storstockholms Lokaltrafik and its ownership was transferred to the Stockholm County Council.
context_section_description: In 1987 a new company with the name AB Stockholms Spårvägar was created by the Swedish Tramway Society to take care of the traffic on the then forthcoming Djurgårdslinjen. Storstockholms Lokaltrafik accepted the re-use of its old name and logotype.  Starting in 1991 the company runs the heritage tram line to the island of Djurgården in central Stockholm.
  When regular tram service was started on Spårväg City in 2010 the company got the contract to run this service for the SL.
  In April 2014 the Stockholm County Council's Traffic department announced that the company was granted the contract for the period 2015-2022 for both Spårväg City and Lidingöbanan. During this period the two tramways will be connected.
