Tram Nice, line 2 route from Magnan to Jean-Medecin (2019)It's not the overhead line that's rising, it's the pantograph. And if it has to stop for the battery-to-pantograph transition, it's done automatically thanks to ground markers.By alex spotter train - June 29, 2019.

Tram at Nice Port Lympia station (2019)Well, in Lyon, we have driverless metros (Line D), metros with drivers (Lines A, B, C), and a rack-and-pinion metro (Line C) built on the route of an old funicular railway (opened in 1891, closed in 1974 to make way for the metro) that climbs a hill! We also have six tram lines, the first of which opened in 2001, and the last was completed at the end of 2019. Additionally, there are two funiculars, opened in 1878 and 1900, which have been modernized since then. So, brace yourselves, folks! 2030 Target - Line 1 extension toward L'Ariane, then La Trinité (about 5 km) - Line 3 extension toward Lingostière shopping center (2.5 km) - Line 4 project approved, connecting Nice Airport and Cagnes-sur-Mer train station [6.2 km] - Tram-train studies between Ariane and Cantaron [7 km] - The TGV/TER train station at Nice Airport is under construction. With all this, Nice is catching up (along with Strasbourg and its extensive tram network) and will still have an efficient transportation network if everything proceeds as planned.By alex spotter train - December 14, 2019.

Nice tram line 2 Airport terminal 2 - Magnan (2018-2019)The speed of the tram is crazy! Come and see in Bordeaux, on your straight lines with sidewalks on the sides, we do 60kmh! And yet we don't have more accidents.... You just have to know how to manage the risks, that's all: we set low speeds at accident-prone intersections and we set very high speeds the rest of the time to compensate.By alex spotter train - June 15, 2018 - March 10, 2019.

Nice, France - Tramway HD (2015)The Nice tramway (French: Tramway de Nice) is a 8.7-kilometre (5.4 mi), single-line tramway in the city of Nice in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France. It is operated by the Société nouvelle des transports de l'agglomération niçoise division of Veolia Transdev under the name Lignes d'azur. Opened on 24 November 2007, it replaced bus lines 1, 2, 5 and 18. From the start, the system had 20 Alstom Citadis trains in service, providing a frequency of seven minutes. Since its inception, the number of passengers has increased from 70,000 per day in 2008 to 90,000 per day in 2011. The frequency of trams is to gradually increase from seven to five minutes, even four minutes by 2011. Given the success of the T1 line, mayor of Nice Christian Estrosi decided to create two other lines, which are planned to go into service beginning in 2015. Line 2 is to serve the Nice airport to the west through the construction of a multimodal center and the Port of Nice to the east. Line 3 will cross the valley of the Var. In addition, the Nice Côte d'azur urban region decided to extend line 1 to the Pasteur neighbourhood.By ACG Travel Videos - June 2, 2015.

Tramway de Nice, France (2016)Opened in 2007, the Nice tramway (French: Tramway de Nice) is a 8.7-kilometre (5.4 mi), single-line tramway in the city of Nice in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France. It is operated by the Société nouvelle des transports de l'agglomération niçoise division of Veolia Transdev under the name Lignes d'azur The cars of the Nice tramway are unique and have been designed to blend in with the Niçois architecture. They are based on the Alstom Citadis family of tramcars and were built near La Rochelle, Poitou-Charentes. The Nice tramway was originally to use the ground-level power supply third rail system as used by the Bordeaux tramway. However, this was abandoned in favour of the more conventional overhead power supply cables providing 750 V DC, except where the tram crosses the Place Masséna and Place Garibaldi, when it lowers its pantograph and relies on its onboard nickel metal hydride batteries to cross these large open spaces, where overhead wires would be an eyesore.By Timosha21 - July 26, 2016.

Nice Tramway Line 2 at the Airport (2019)The western surface section of Nice’s new T2 tramway opened in 2018 and is catenary-free. The Alstom Citadis X05 trams are equipped with Ecopack supercapacitors, which are recharged at stops in 20 seconds using Alstom’s SRS ground-based static charging technology. The line is the first application of SRS, a development of Alstom’s APS ground-level power supply technology. Line T2 provides a link to the Airport and a light rail service for the new commercial/residential developments around Cadam. As elsewhere in France, the tram is part of an urban improvement scheme. The tracks are mainly laid in a grass reservation, and much greenery and landscaping have been planted. Travel within the Airport is free, as the tram also serves as the inter-terminal shuttle. The eastern underground section of the line to Port Lympia is scheduled to open in Summer 2019. However, the geology was more problematic than anticipated, so this may not happen.By michaelinlondon Belfast - April 2019.
