Darnytsia depot overhauls aging Tatra T3 trams
Kyiv is carrying out a major overhaul on its third Tatra T3 tram of 2026 at the Darnytsia tram depot. Kyivpasstrans crews are replacing electrical equipment, upgrading driver controls, installing air conditioning and tinted windows — repairs that should add about ten years to each tram's service life. These repairs keep older Tatra T3 cars in service on Kyiv routes, improving comfort and extending fleet life without buying new vehicles.
