Build a city transit network with STB trams and buses

Designing your street-level transit routes

Plan tram and bus routes that connect different districts of your city. Trams run on fixed tracks, so design your street layout to accommodate tram lines—typically running down main avenues or through central areas. Buses can follow more flexible paths, making them ideal for secondary routes and neighborhood connections.

Placing trams and buses

Use Minecraft Transit Railway's street-level track system to lay tram routes. The STB S700 tram and K-Tram models work well for main transit corridors. Place buses on roads using the appropriate transit system, positioning them at logical stops throughout your city.

Creating realistic transit infrastructure

Build bus shelters and tram stops at regular intervals along your routes. Use appropriate blocks and decorations to create waiting areas. Add street furniture like benches, lamp posts, and signage to enhance the transit hub atmosphere.

Consider creating a hub area where multiple tram and bus lines intersect, allowing passengers to transfer between services. This creates a more interconnected and realistic city transit experience. Mix standard and night bus variants on different routes or schedules for visual variety.
