History

The first two tram lines in Elbląg opened in 1895. These two lines linked the city's suburbs to the urban center and the railway station.
The Tramway was almost entirely destroyed during World War 2. The post-war Polish authorities decided to rebuild the tramway. During the late 70s, there was serious discussion and consideration of liquidating the entire tram line, following in the footsteps of nearby cities like Słupsk. However, there was massive opposition to this plan by the locals, and the plan was scrapped by the 80s. In the 1980s, the city also opened a third line.
The most recent expansion to the Tramway opened in 2006, expanding the northern termini of the line to ul. Fromborka.
