History of Tram in Istanbul
In Istanbul, when it was the capital of the Ottoman Empire, there were two large tram networks on the Asian and European sides. The lines, which first started as a horse-drawn tram, were replaced by electric trams over time, and the Istanbul Electric Tram and Tunnel Enterprise (IETT) was established.
The tram lines, which were built step by step over the years, experienced their peak years in 1956 with 56 trains on 270 lines and 108 million passengers. In the 1960s, after the May 27 Revolution, the tram service in the city began to shut down, and in 1966 it was completely stopped. The lines were dismantled and instead roads were built where motor vehicles could move faster and faster under the conditions of that day.
