The Sanremo trolleybus system or San Remo trolleybus system ((イタリア語:Rete filoviaria di Sanremo)), also known as the Italian Riviera trolleybus (Italian: ), is focused on the town and ''comune'' of Sanremo, in the region of Liguria, northwestern Italy. Opened in 1942 and extended in two stages by 1951, the system consists of three routes operating along different portions of a single long corridor, linking the coastal towns of Ventimiglia and Taggia. ==History== The trolleybus system on the Italian Riviera was built to replace two interurban tramways, the Taggia–Ospedaletti tramway and the Bordighera–Ventimiglia tramway. The new trolleybuses, unlike the trams, were also able to cope with the steep climbs between Ospedaletti and Bordighera. The first trolleybus route, from Sanremo to Ospedaletti (9.15 km),〔 was inaugurated on 21 April 1942, followed on 1 February 1948 by the second line (Sanremo–Taggia), and in 1951 by the Ospedaletti–Ventimiglia extension.〔 The Sanremo–Taggia and Sanremo–Ventimiglia routes were designated as lines T and V, respectively. A third route, serving the urban area of Sanremo only and using the overhead wires already in place for lines T and V, began operation in 1958, designated line U.〔 Route V is about 18 km long, route T 10 km (originally) and route U 5.75 km.〔 On 20 December 2001, a branch was opened on line T to serve the then-new Taggia-Arma railway station.〔''Trolleybus Magazine'' No. 242 (March–April 2002), p. 43. National Trolleybus Association (UK). ISSN 0266-7452.〕 However, it was used for only a few months. In March 2002, line T service was converted indefinitely to motorbuses, due to roadworks,〔''Trolleybus Magazine'' No. 244 (July–Aug. 2002), p. 91.〕 and a succession of other road projects have continued to delay the reinstatement of trolleybus service. At present, trolleybuses have not operated on line T since 2002.〔''Trolleybus Magazine'' No. 299 (Sep.-Oct. 2011), p. 115. National Trolleybus Association (UK). ISSN 0266-7452.〕 The trolleybus system was owned and operated by ''La Società Trasporti Elettrici Liguri'' (STEL) until 1983, when Riviera Trasporti SpA took over. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Trolleybuses in Sanremo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
