Overview
The Strasbourg tramway, operated by the CTS (Compagnie des Transports Strasbourgeois), is a network of six lines (A, B, C, D, E, and F) that crisscross Strasbourg and extend into Kehl, Germany. This cross-border connection is a unique feature, shared by only a few tram networks in Europe.The tramway's history dates back to 1878 when the first horse-drawn line was established. Electric trams were introduced in 1894, leading to an extensive network. However, like many cities, Strasbourg saw a decline in tram usage, and the original system closed in 1960.A strategic decision to revive public transport led to the tramway's reintroduction in 1994. The modern tramway has been a resounding success, contributing to the development of other tram systems in France. The system is known for its accessibility, with features like ramped access for wheelchairs, audio announcements, and tactile floor strips.The tram is a great way to get around Strasbourg, reaching popular destinations such as the Notre-Dame Cathedral, Place Kléber, Petite France, and the European Quarter.
