In 2012, the city abandoned its plans to reintroduce a tram just before construction would start. This research tries to find out what the chances are that a tram would be reintroduced in Groningen today. This is done by looking at the general advantages and disadvantages of a tram and by diving into the developments that are specific to contemporary Groningen. Mixed interviews are used to explore these developments with specialists, civil servants and politicians. The research will show that the current developments in Groningen do not evidently lead to a reintroduction of a tram. However, this does not at all mean that reintroducing a tram in Groningen is impossible. date: 2019 date_type: published thesis_type: bachelor degree_programme: TP tutors_name: Bahrami, F. keywords_local: Groningen keywords_local: tram language_iso: en titleorder: Feasibility of a tram in Groningen dbi: 5d8b5f09d856c imported_item: yes date_of_import: 2020-04-22 imported_from: http://scripties.frw.eldoc.ub.rug.nl/root/ba/TP/2019/pjytsma/ import_source_file: theses-frw-20200422132455-5d8b5f09d856c.xml date_issued: 2019-01-01 citation: Ytsma, P.J.
