Abstract
The first of 37 Citadis trams ordered by the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality in Turkey from Alstom arrived for testing in September 2009 (see Figure 1). After testing, the Citadis fleet will replace the high-floor trams in use on the Zeytinburnu-Bagcilar line. Ulasim, Istanbul´s urban transport operator, uses low-floor trams on the Zeytinburnu-Kabatas line, which currently serves the historic Golden Horn district.
