Tram Depots in a Newer Town
brrrring brrrring
Portdale made the wise decision not to totally ditch it's tram system, and it shows. With several Tram and LRT routes integrated into eachother, Portdale efficiently moves it's citizens quickly and cleanly. The previous main Depot for the Electric Traction fleet was on Hoover Island (more on that later), however in 2010, a grant for rebuilding a former Shipyard Brownfield was given to the PdATA (Portdale Area Transit Authority), and with what is effectively a Blank Check, they began the move to Old Colony Depot, named for it's Boro, Old Colony. (Itself named after being the first area the brits colonized in the 1700s). Old Colony has several tracks for Trolleys and LRVs, space inside to work on various Electro-Traction vehicles, and secondary stabling for CiMTrans. Nearby, a Bus Station allows Tram Passengers coming from Dartmouth to Old Colony to transfer to various Buses and Trams, and is a hub of activity for the "Green Development Area" of Harborside.
