After the almost total disappearance of trams in the first half of the 20th century, a rapid growth of tram networks has been observed in French cities since 1985. Initially, trams were perceived only as a means of public transportation, however, they gradually became an important urban tool and a catalyst for the thorough restructuring of public spaces. At present, tram lines in France are a symbol of a modern approach and an expression of pro-environmental ambitions of French cities.
