Sheffield Supertram



         


The Sheffield Supertram is a tram network in Sheffield, England. It runs from Sheffield city centre northwest to Middlewood and Malin Bridge, via the University of Sheffield and Hillsborough, northeast to Meadowhall, via Attercliffe, and southeast to Halfway, via Norfolk Park, Manor, Gleadless and Crystal Peaks.

The network was begun in 1991, and the first section was opened in 1994, shortly after a similar scheme in Manchester. Plans are underway to extend the network to Rotherham, Dore, Fulwood and Maltby.
