Msheireb Tram is a transport network in Msheireb Downtown of Doha.[1] The Tram network is a single 2 km, closed-loop track system that includes nine stops, making it easier for visitors to access all parts of the city district. The network uses three hydrogen vehicles.[2] The Msheireb Tram interconnects the entirety of Msheireb Downtown Doha, running along a two-kilometre closed loop track that takes roughly 18 minutes to complete.[3] [4] [5] [6] [7] The network is served by a fleet of three hydrogen vehicles provided by TIG/m, United States. Built at the TIG/m facility in California, the cars are air-conditioned and feature light-filtering glass panels that reduce the sun's heat effect by 90 percent.
