tram stops

Cable car halts

Tram stops are designated locations where trams halt to pick up and drop off passengers, functioning much like bus stops but along fixed rail lines.

They typically feature raised platforms, shelters, and signage indicating routes and schedules.

In cities with light rail or streetcar systems, tram stops serve as key nodes in public transit networks.

We waited at the tram stop for about five minutes.
