History

On 22 June 1894 the mule tram-line from Bolhão to the Igreja do Bonfim was opened. This line was extended on 8 May 1898 to São Roque (Mercado de Corujeira).
The line was electrified in 1902 and extended to Venda Nova in 1912. In 1918 line 10/ was opened to São Pedro da Cova branching off line 10 in Rio Tinto. This route was mainly intended for the transport of coal from the mines and the number of passenger trams was for many years limited. In 1927 line 10// was opened to Gondomar. This line branched off line 10/ in Santa Eulália. To cross the Estrada da Circunvalação a tunnel does exist in Rua São Roque da Lameira which was used by line 10. The group of lines 10 closed on 1 January 1967.
