Zagreb's public transport system, operated by ZET, is set for a series of modifications to tram and bus routes and schedules, with changes beginning this weekend and extending into the following week. These adjustments are primarily driven by ongoing construction and repair work across the city.
Tram line 5 will operate on a shortened route to Kvatriฤ this weekend due to work at the Maksimir tram depot. Additionally, significant disruptions are expected for tram lines 102, 103, and 105 from Saturday morning to Sunday morning. This is caused by the final stages of gas pipeline reconstruction at Britanski trg.
Bus lines 102 and 105 will have their routes shortened towards Britanski trg, terminating at the intersection of Nazorova and Zamenhofova streets. Bus line 103 will use platform 1 at the Britanski trg terminal. Furthermore, bus line 133 will follow an altered route in both directions between Savski most and ฤehi due to road repairs on Mrkลกina Street, bypassing several usual stops.
Other disruptions include the closure of the intersection of Zvonimirova and ล ubiฤeva streets, impacting tram line 7, which will also change its route starting Tuesday, July 14th. The extraordinary bus line 602, serving Trg ลพrtava faลกizma and Borongaj, will also have its timetable adjusted on weekdays. ZET advises passengers to check the new timetables posted at terminals and on ZET's website.
