Chongjin is the only city in North Korea other than Pyongyang to operate a tram system. These trains are all second-hand from Pyongyang. Originally, it was planned to be a 32 km system, but only phase 1 (6 km) and phase 2 (7 km) were completed. Phase 3 (8 km) was not completed due to lack of funds.

The main road, called Road No. 1, is a six lane highway that intersects the city
