History[edit]

In December 1912, the construction of a tram depot began in Evpatoria, in the summer of 1913 — the construction of the City (another name — Central; City Theater — st. Simferopol; the basis of the modern route № 1), Dachna (City Theater — st. Mayakovsky; the basis of the modern route № 2) and Moynakska (City Theater - Moynak Mud Hospital; the basis of the modern route № 1) of the lines. On March 31, 1914, a trial passage took place, and on May 10 (May 23 AD) regular traffic began. In 1926, a line was laid to the railway station (modern route № 3) with a length of 1.8 km.

In November 1950, the Dacha Line was extended to Moinak, which formed the modern route № 2. Subsequently, the reversal rings "Moinak Mud Hospital" (1951) and "Simferopol Street" (1953) were put into operation.

On June 13, 1981, the route № 4 "Simferopol Street - New Beach" with a length of 1.7 km began.

In 1990, a section from the Moynak mud hospital to the street was put into operation. International and the ring, where the route № 2 continued. In March 1991, a two-track line was laid from the ring on International Street to the "Sputnik-2" neighborhood, along which route № 5 was launched, but later it was canceled and route № 2 was extended to "Sputnik". In 1995, route № 1 was extended from Moinak to the Sputnik-2 microdistrict, and route № 2, on the contrary, was reduced to the Moinak mud hospital; in 2005, due to the congestion of the section "City Theater - Hotel "Ukraine", route № 3 acquired its current appearance.

In 2017, a new payment system was installed that allows you to pay using a bank card.

In the fall of 2019, a tram car model 71-411 in blue and white livery entered the city.
