There are two lines running between Tramway Boulevard (NM 556), the Central and Unser Transit Center (CUTC), and the Uptown Transit Center (UTC).^[2][3] It was built in 2016–17 and began limited operation in November 2017,^[4] but was subsequently delayed for over two years due to problems with the stations and buses.
