Athens Tram
Tram network of Athens, run by STASY (formerly Tram S.A.). The first network opened on 19 July 2004 before the Olympic Games, from Syntagma to Neo Faliro (SEF) and along the coast to Glyfada and Kolymvitirio. A 700 m extension to Asklepieio Voulas opened on 15 November 2007. A one-way loop through Piraeus, built from 2013, opened on 15 December 2021 as far as Agia Triada and reached its final terminus at Akti Poseidonos on 18 February 2026. STASY gives the system length as 31.3 km (Greek Wikipedia: 29.3 km); the four lots sum to 26.6 km, the single route measured from OpenStreetMap, one track per lot with the shared Syntagma – Edem track counted once. 60 stops, 750 V DC overhead supply.

Sections
| Sections | Status | Length | Timeline | Cost | Funding | Contractors | Contract terms |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Syntagma – Edem – Neo Faliro (SEF) Length measured from OpenStreetMap geometry (one track, stop to stop). Part of the network opened on 19 July 2004 (Syntagma – Neo Faliro / SEF branch); the source gives no branch lengths. The drawn line runs Syntagma – Edem on the T6 alignment and Edem – SEF on the T7 alignment. The 31.3 km system length cited elsewhere is not the sum of the lots. | Opened | 15 km |

| Edem – Glyfada – Kolymvitirio Length measured from OpenStreetMap geometry (one track, stop to stop). Coastal branch to Glyfada of the network opened on 19 July 2004; it shares the Syntagma – Edem track with the previous lot, which carries that track in its length. | Opened | 9 km |

| Kolymvitirio – Asklepieio Voulas Single-stop extension of 700 m. The line drawn from OpenStreetMap stop to stop measures 0.83 km; the sourced length is kept. | Opened | 0.7 km |

| Piraeus loop: Neo Faliro (SEF) – Agia Triada – Akti Poseidonos Length measured from OpenStreetMap geometry (one track, stop to stop). One-way loop; construction started in 2013. The loop opened to the public on 15 December 2021 with Agia Triada as provisional terminus (first traffic); the final stop Akti Poseidonos opened on 18 February 2026. The source gives no separate length for the two stages, so the loop is one lot. | Opened | 2 km |
