The tram connecting Santa Cruz and La Laguna celebrated its fourth birthday yesterday, as well as the news that it has broken the 52 million passenger mark.

Criticised at the time due to the chaos the building of the tram lines caused, particularly in Santa Cruz, the service is now considered a major plus for both cities due to the traffic it has taken off the main roads.

Calculations carried out by the company to mark the birthday include the total distance covered by the trams since the inauguration of Line 1 on 2 June 2007: 52 million km.

The busiest stop is La Laguna's Trinidad, with 115,000 users monthly.
