Whilst I fully agree that Prague is a city that would be ideal for trolleybus operation, the above is a bit of an overstatement I'm afraid. One short trial section was opened in 2017, and the DPP (Prague's city transport operator) website has only just announced that construction has started on anything further:https://www.dpp.cz/en/company/news-...construction-of-the-trolleybus-line-has-begunPrague also opened a new trolleybus system in 2017, and significant expansion has occurred since then and is still planned.
Edited to remove unnecessary highlighting of dm1's quote.
Also, one oddity of the scheme mentioned in the linked DPP article is that there remains an unwired gap between Prosek and Letňany. I'm not sure why this short stretch of urban dual-carriageway is deemed unsuitable for wiring?
