Future Expansion
In the Limmat Valley, between Bahnhof Altstetten and Bahnhof Killwangen-Spreitenbach, the "Limmattalbahn", a new light rail service (compatible with the Zürich Tram Network and therefore metre gauge) is in planning and should be partially opened by 2020. Since this line would extend into Canton Aargau, there is the possibility of two referenda rejecting the project.
There are also plans for numerous other extensions to be built up to 2025, notably over the Hardbrücke between Hardplatz and the new Tram Zürich West branch at Schiffbau.
