Transportation

By tram, bus and bike

Montpellier is covered by a dense and high-performance public transportation network (TAM).

In addition to numerous bus lines, four tramway lines are currently in service in the greater Montpellier area.

If you are a resident of the greater Montpellier area, you can benefit from free public transportation upon presentation of your proof of residence and by submitting your demand online.

Your ticket will give you access to the TAM public network, to P+Tram parking lots and to bike-parks near tramway lines.

Cycling in the city means 160 km of cycle paths and, in time, a continuous cycle network. Whether it’s for everyday life, work, sport or leisure, it’s easy to get around Montpellier by bike, whatever your habits.
