The documentation for the decision on zoning approval includes a proposed extension of the existing tram line Hlubočepy-Sídliště Barrandov that was opened in November 2003. The proposed extension connects to the existing stop Sídliště Barrandov and continues in the south-western direction on the axis of the planned street area. It will have a length of approximately 1.5 km and include a total of 3 stops with provisory names Kaskády, Holyně and Slivenec. The extension is ended with a new tramway loop Slivenec between Holyně and Slivenec on the cadastral area of Slivenec, north of K Barrandovu Street next to an agricultural premises. The new track runs mostly outside the existing built-up area over development areas behind the current end of the Barrandov housing estate. Similar to the existing line, the extended tram line will be the backbone of the mass transportation system in this area. In the first phase (after putting into operation), it will serve to inhabitants in the existing living area at the end of the Barrandov housing estate (Kaskády housing estate), in Holyně and in Slivence. In the following phase (after the completion of hte development areas) also for the new housing estate. The follow-up bus transportation will provide transportation services on a wider surrounding area. The main benefit of the tram line construction is enhance quality of transportation services on the territory. The tram line construction includes only such buildings and operating units that are necessary for the tram line operation, usually provided by DP a. s. as investor. Further, it includes all indispensable related shifts and bypasses of roads and underground utility lines.. The extent of the construction is evident from the list of constructional and operational units and their functional description. Electricity for the tramway line is planned to be supplied from the Barrandov converter station. However, the construction does not include the final road along the tramway body and in the future built-up area, the main water pipes and underground utility services for the future housing estate and the built-up area. It is expected that in the course of further preparation, investors and designers of the roads and engineering services will be appointed and preparatory work will start. After that, the tram line construction can be mutually coordinated including solution of the situation during putting into operation of the track and roads.
