The project will be implemented along the capital city’s north-south axis, comprising two routes with double tram tracks.
According to the Governor’s Office of the Capital City of Ulaanbaatar, the first line will run 11 kilometers from the Zunjin shopping center to Sukhbaatar Square, with 16 stops. The second line will extend 15 kilometers from the General Authority for Archives to Sukhbaatar Square, with 23 stops.
At the 2040 level, the project is expected to deliver economic benefits by reducing time costs associated with road traffic by a combined total of USD 99.22 million per day in both directions.
With the implementation of the “Ulaanbaatar Tram" project, buses will be able to operate on shorter routes, enabling faster and more efficient service for residents. Average vehicle speeds are also expected to increase. Trams are planned to operate at five-minute intervals, with a total travel time of 37 minutes from the General Authority for Archives to Sukhbaatar Square and 29 minutes from Zunjin shopping center to Sukhbaatar Square.
The project will significantly ease traffic congestion in the city center, substantially reduce daily commuting time, and establish a reliable and stable public transport network. Introducing an environmentally friendly, energy-efficient transport solution in Ulaanbaatar will also help reduce air pollution and noise impacts.
