As of July 11, tram route No. 10 has fully resumed service in Odesa. For the first time since last December, trams are once again running from Yitzhak Rabin Street to Tiraspol Square. 

On weekdays, eight trams will be in service on the route. Trains will run every 10–11 minutes. On weekends, six trams will run every 14 minutes.

Accordingto Petro Obukhov, a member of the Odessa City Council, the restoration of the route marks another step toward the full-scale launch of the city’s electric transit network.
