Århus Sporveje 100th anniversary (2017)Ove Hansen discusses his over 30 years at Århus Sporveje.
Aarhus Tramway is celebrating its 100th anniversary today. A large exhibition at Magasin previously marked this milestone. The celebration has a special wish from the birthday boy. During the era when trams ran in Aarhus, the steering wheel was a symbol of that time. Here is a relic from an old tram. Ove Hansen is also from the period when trams operated on rails in the inner part of Aarhus. Back then, there was much more contact with people on the street. You could open the door and wave to the girls in the summer, or do similar things. It's not really possible today. Ove Hansen made his last trip on the rails on November 3, 1971. The next day, trams again became part of the cityscape, coinciding with the 100th anniversary of Aarhus Tramway, celebrated with an exhibition at Magasin. There’s talk about trams again—whether to restore them and whether they would disrupt the cityscape. Should we bring trams back? Isn't that right?
Now, action is needed soon. I believe it's realistic, within a 10- to 20-year timeframe, to explore reintroducing them before I retire. Yes, I’d definitely advocate for it. The exhibition offers a trip back in time, including a look at a Volvo from the mid-1950s. Aarhus Trams is also using this anniversary as an opportunity to look ahead. Director Torben Højer plans to revisit the city center, which will look different in the future. In fact, the tram system is planning new bus routes that could be converted to trams in the future. Taking a tram is a significant quality upgrade, especially considering environmental noise levels. The city council has already agreed to reintroduce trams.
We need to secure funding, and I believe we will manage to do so eventually. Ove Hansen, who last drove a tram over 30 years ago, has already submitted a bid if the city council agrees before he retires. Our sports director has promised that if trams return during his tenure, he’ll be one of the first allowed to drive one. So I’ve been trying to keep that dream alive. Welcome, O. Hansen. You've been driving buses for more than 36 years, and you also have some experience with a little tram. How does it feel to celebrate a 100th anniversary? I think it's fantastic to be part of a company culture that has existed for 100 years—an electric tram running from the train station to the main square, and now to the efficient transport system we have today in Aarhus. Recent studies rank it as one of the best in the country. The question is how long it will stay that way. This might be the last anniversary for this private company. I believe so, at least for me. It’s a shame because the company's spirit has always been strong. It’s a bit sad to think about going back to the good old days soon, after 36 years—that’s a long time. How has your work changed over the years? It’s changed a lot. I started in May or April 1968, at an old tram depot on Dalgas Avenue. When I first began, we handed out tickets from a sidecar, and later, I obtained a bus driver's license, allowing me to drive extra buses. Within six months, I trained as a tram driver—though we didn’t call it that back then. We called it a tram driver, the person who drives the tram, like Dirk Fits. I did that for the last three years before trams were phased out. It’s a shame today. Since then, I've driven buses and been very happy doing so. It’s a lively company—fun, sometimes in trouble, but mostly enjoyable with passengers. It makes you feel like you’re serving a good cause. So, you’ve driven a tram. Do you have any memorable stories? Yes, there was a lot of teasing among us. For example, some would say on TV they lived off the army, and we lived off passengers. Sometimes, we’d joke that if it weren’t for those damn passengers, we’d have a good time. I remember when Palads closed after an evening lecture, and someone pulled the cord—there was no power on the tram in front. The driver didn't leave until five minutes late, so he had to take all the passengers to Magasinet. That was always fun to mess around with afterward. Another story involves a colleague who applied the handbrake as he drove up from Skovvejen in the tram, then turned left off Trøjborgvej, and…By Ole Svend Rasmussen - .

Aarhus runs in tram tracks (1904-2015)Århus Sporveje (abbreviated ÅS) was a traffic company owned by Aarhus Municipality, which was established on 1 January 1928 and merged into Midttrafik on 1 January 2007. The company took over the tram operation in Aarhus when it was established, which had been started by the private company Aarhus Elektriske Sporvej 7 July 1904. In 1929 the tram network was expanded by extending it up through Tordenskjoldsgade to Marienlund by Riis Skov; one more line was built from Banegårdspladsen over Frederiksbjerg to Harald Jensens Plads, a line that was later extended to Kongsvang. The original line from Dalgas Avenue to Trøjborg was extended to double track; originally it was only single-track, with many sidings on the stretch.
When the municipality took over the company in 1928, 46 people were employed. In 1940, the company had 225 employees, and a stock consisting of 23 trams, 22 sidecars and 43 buses. [1]
Tramway operations were discontinued on 7 November 1971. Before then, however, the company had opened several bus lines, and even more were added after the municipal reform in 1970, when Aarhus Municipality grew significantly. The Aarhus city buses were called trambuses for many years, but that name has long since fallen out of use. For many years, contrary to other Danish cities, boarding took place at the back and exiting at the front, but from 1 January 2012 this was abolished, and it is now permitted to enter and exit from all doors in the buses. As one of the only places in the country, there is still self-ticketing on the buses to this day.
On 1 January 2005, Århus Sporveje was split into Trafikselskabet Århus Sporveje (administration and planning) and Busselskabet Aarhus Sporveje (driving). Both were owned by Aarhus Municipality until 1 January 2007.
Trams were operated in Aarhus in the period 1904-71. It happened under the same company that still runs the city's bus traffic, Århus Sporveje, as it has been called since 1928. Nowadays, Århus Sporveje is part of the regional transport company Midttrafik.

MY TK Aarhus tram in the city (1903-2013)From May 31, 1884, to November 6, 1971, Aarhus had a tram service. Initially, horse-drawn trams were used, but starting in 1903, the company Aarhus Elektriske Sporvei introduced electric operation. The last trams rolled through the city on November 7, 1971, after which Aarhus Sporveje fully switched to bus service.
Here’s a great collection of tram photos, which also shows the tram route across Aarhus—a snapshot of the streets, cars, clothing, people, houses, and more from that time. I lived near the terminus in Kongsvang, where it once changed from Kongsvang Trælast Handel to Marselis Boulevard - Åhavevej.By Sammy Stjer - - .
