Facts and Numbers
The system is operated by the city municipal company ([Криворізьке комунальне підприємство - Швидкісний трамвай; Kryvorizke Komunalne Pidpryemstvo - Shvydkisnyi Tramvai] Error: {{Lang-xx}}: text has italic markup (help), , literally "Kryvyi Rih "Rapid Tram" Municipal Company").
The total lenghth of the Kryvyi Rih Rapid Tram is 17.7 km, 6.8 km of which are fully underground. The entire system has only 10 stations, 4 of which are located underground and built up to the metro standard. There are two routes: Kiltseva-Maidan Pratsi, and Kiltseva-Zarichna.
The rolling stock used on the system are the Tatra T3, and the KTM-11/11T. The only tram depot that serves the system is located near the Maidan Pratsi station. For more convenient turn-arounds of the tram, there are turn-around circles on both ends of the lines.
