(26 Sept 2020) Kolkata has combined its two major attractions — tram and College Street — and created a unique attraction during the pandemic.
The city popular for its libraries and list of famous academicians, has launched a ‘tram library’ that will operate on the College Street.
The initiative has been launched by state’s West Bengal Transport Corporation (WBTC) that operates trams all over the city. This tram will be moving between Shyambazar and Esplanade, traversing 4.5 km on the famous College Street — a street which houses famous universities such as Calcutta University and Presidency University, Scottish Church College, Hindu School, Hare School and the Calcutta Girls’ School.
