Just a few weeks later on the 2nd of November, Tram Line 1 extended further up north to Central Park East (now SOHO) and to Nationale (now Parkroyal) with the entire route stretching 1.4km over 9 stops. At an unknown date, due to low ridership, the extension to Nationale was shut down, and on the 31st of October 2015, the entire line too shut down. After a year long downtime, renovation and rejuvenation works were put into place, and the line was officially reopened on the 16th of January 2019, with a shorter altered route, with trains starting their journey at Museum/6th Road, looping at Stalingrad Coast. With connections to buses, the BERT and Metro, the newly renovated tram line was received with high praise from critics, and still runs to this day. | ||
