The English company Kalgoorlie Electric Tramways was given the concession to construct and operate an electric tramway system in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia.

The first section between Kalgoorlie and Boulder was opened in May 1902 with other lines being operated by January 1903. In May 1949 the company was taken over by the Eastern Goldfields Transport Board who closed the system in 1952.
