The Le Mans tramway (French: Tramway du Mans) is a tramway in the city of Le Mans, Pays de la Loire, France. It opened on the 17 November 2007 and currently consists of two lines with a seven station common section in the center of town. The most recent addition to the tramway occurred on the 30 August 2014 which added a connection to Bellevue and created the second line, before that there had been a single line with a branch. The original section of line is considered unusually cheap, costing 302 million euros for 15.4 km. There are no current plans to extend the network, but longer, 44 m, trams will be introduced in 2025.[1]

## Rolling stock

[edit]

The design of the rolling stock was carried out by RCP Design Global agency, which formulated the general concept, fabrics, interior environment and the tram livery on behalf of Alstom.
