The Lille Tram

The Lille Tram



Map of the stops around Lille


The Tram approaches
The tram always has a BUNCH of people on it but only when school is done because the high school kids always take the tram. We can see the tram from our apartment deck but also Friday afternoon has the most people of all.

the Metro map
The tram travels all over Lille and the area, including from Lille Flandres to Roubaix and Tourcquoing.

We travel in Lille when we can so we normally go to Lille Flandres but we also take a train in Lille Europe.
To travel, you need a zap ticket. For two stops, it costs 70 centimes. A regular ticket is 1,40 euros.

My most memorable tram ride was when we took the tram to the end of the tracks when it was raining and we had nothing to do. It was a fun ride.
