Tram to airport in Florence?

Hello:
Am I right in thinking that there will soon be a Tramvia tram line from Central Florence out to the airport?
does anyone have any updated information on this?
Thanks!

I was there in June 2017 and didn't see any traces of it.

No trace of it? Tell the Florentines who’ve been battling with traffic around the many work sites for over two years.

It’s almost finished (supposedly this month). However there will be a few months of testing before it’s opened to the public (supposedly it will be inaugurated before the end of June 2018).

Let’s see if the Mayor is right (apparently he has placed a bet on its timely completion).

Yep, was there fall of 2016, driving in and out of the airport was to say the least challenging. Finally made it to rental return after three trips around.
Glad to hear it will finally be completed.

Thanks, Roberto.
I'm hoping it will be operational by this September; though the Vola In Bus to the airport is always efficient.
