Sažetak
Presenting history of public transport in the City of Zagreb, especially by trams, is currently a matter of negligence in the past decades, because there is an unused potential in form of old trams standing in depots. Firstly, the paper gives examples of good practice in European cities regarding old trams, emphasizing their efforts to conserve cultural and technical heritage. Additionally, an overview of old trams in Zagreb (preserved and non-preserved, operational and non-operational) in the original form is presented. The paper also proposes the introduction of a tourist tram line as an additional service easily accessible to citizens and tourists, provided by the public transport authority in Zagreb. In creating the tourist line solution, the following was taken into consideration: optimization, resource savings, quality of the offer, and the costs. The proposed tourist line solution would lead to creating a better public transport image among the public, resulting in increased transport demand, better finances, improved vehicle utilization and even more sustainable modal split. In addition to the mentioned, there are also operational benefits for the old tram fleet, since the museum trams are best preserved by using them. The paper especially highlights the importance of popularizing public transport in the City of Zagreb as a part of cultural heritage for both citizens and tourists. The introduction of a tourist tram line in the City of Zagreb is expected to improve tourist offer in the City and preserve its recognizable identity in the future.
