Tramway Renaissance in Western Europe A Socio-technical Analysis /[electronic resource] :by Dejan Petkov. - 1st ed. 2020. - XIII, 369 p. 45 illus.online resource. - Studien zur Mobilitäts- und Verkehrsforschung,1868-5803. - Studien zur Mobilitäts- und Verkehrsforschung,.

A socio-technical framing of the tramway renaissance -- Characteristics of the international tramway renaissance -- The gradual and multifaceted development of tramway systems in Germany -- The emergence of the modern French tramway as a socio-technical novelty -- The uneven path of tramway development in England -- Appropriation of tramway and light rail technology. .

Dejan Petkov explores the tramway renaissance in Western Europe from a socio-technical standpoint and focuses on the development in Germany, France, and England. A multiple case analysis reveals the drivers, impact forces, actors and interest constellations behind the tramway renaissance in these countries and demonstrates the large variations in local systems and their style. A key finding is that there can be quite different paths to the success of tramway systems, but this success usually comes at a cost and can have a comprehensive character only if the systems are considered an integral part of the overarching strategies and concepts for urban and regional development.
