MOTAT tram rides are free for you and your family to enjoy! They are the best and most beautiful way to travel around the Te Wai Ōrea, Western Springs Precinct.
The first stage of our Western Springs Tramway upgrade has finished ahead of schedule! A full tram service between the Aviation Hall and MOTAT Great North Road will resume from Saturday 5 April and continue through to the end of the April School Holidays, 27 April.
From 28 April, Stage 2 of the upgrade works will begin and trams will only be able to travel along Great North Road until approx, 20 June.

MOTAT is famous for our operational Collection items, our Daniel Adamson & Co. Boiler powered Pumphouse, our fleet of vintage Trams and our historic village are just a few of the experiences we love to share with visitors.
To keep these heritage items operating and in their best condition we must undertake general maintenance on occasion. Whenever possible we will have this work done outside normal opening hours and will always strive to minimise any disruption to your experience when you visit us.
