Tram line extension opens between Prague's Modřany and Libuše districts

The extended tram line number 17 from Modřany to Libuše in the south of Prague opened to the public on Saturday.

The Prague Public Transport Company added 1,700 metres to the route and four new stops at a cost of around CZK 300 million, mostly paid from EU funds.

The opening of the new tram line will bring a number of changes to bus lines in the area of Jižní Město, Libuš, Modřany and Zbraslav.
