The Sigatoka Town Council is in the process of holding talks with the Tourism Stakeholders and Fiji Sugar Corporation to revive the tram lines as a means of public transportation and also to promote the Salad Bowl of Fiji as a tourist destination.
The tram lines, which are lying idle, were used as a means to transport sugarcane to the sugar mills.
Special Administrator, Aisea Tuidraki revealed to Fijivillage that transportation has always been a challenge for people of Sigatoka and reviving the tram lines will ease the means of transportation for not only the everyday commuters but the farmers as well.
