Tram stop

Tram stops can range from purpose-built, tram-exclusive infrastructure similar to conventional train stations (example in Lyon), ...
... over stops threaded into narrow urban environments (here in Hong Kong)...
... to simple stops within a public road (here in Frankfurt am Main).

A tram stop, tram station, streetcar stop, or light rail station is a place designated for a tram, streetcar, or light rail vehicle to stop so passengers can board or alight it. Generally, tram stops share most characteristics of bus stops, but because trams operate on rails, they often include railway platforms, especially if stepless entries are provided for accessibility. However, trams may also be used with bus stop type flags and with mid-street pavements as platforms, in street running mode.
