Line 1 will be in operation only from Řečkovice-Pisárky. The Pisárky stop will be moved to the tram loop at the entrance to the depot. Some connections in the direction of the center will start from Lipová. As a replacement service for passengers in this section, line 3 will run more frequently, and will operate on the entire route from Stará osada-Rakovecká throughout the day.

Line 10 will run on the route: Stránská skála – Geislerova – Hlavní nádraží – Malinovského náměstí – Česká – Konečného náměstí – Vozovna Komín – Ečerova, to provide alternative transport from the city center to Bystrce.
