Summary sheet
Syndicat Intercommunal de Transport en Commun de l’Agglomération Tourangelle (Tours Intermunicipal Public Transport Association)
Construction of the first tramway line in the city of Tours (14.8 km, 29 stations), passing through Tours city centre to connect its northern districts to the urban centre of Joué-les-Tours to the south.
To boost the competitiveness and attractiveness of public transport in the Tours region.
The project will help to enhance the relative attraction of rail versus road transport. This will result in a reduction in the number of journeys undertaken by private car and limit the harmful impacts of this mode of transport (accidents, local atmospheric pollution and noise).
Procurement procedures will be in accordance with national legislation and EU directives.
