Getting Around LilleMost of the centre of Lille is pedestrianised and well
signposted, ideal for walking. The city has a good public transport
system, with two metro lines traversing the city, two tram lines
travelling from Lille to Roubaix and Tourcoing and buses covering
60 different routes. The buses, tram and metro run every day
(except 1 May), from 5.30am to around midnight. A single adult
ticket costs around EUR1.25 for the entire network. A City Pass,
costing EUR20 for one day, EUR30 for two days or EUR45 for three
days allows free entry to museums and monuments and unlimited use
of public transport. Taxis are widely available from the airport
and the Lille Europe train station, which is centrally located at 1
Gare De Ville Europe near the main square. Renting a bike is also a
good option in summer. |
