Nantes

France ยท Nantes Mรฉtropole (Naolib network, operated by Semitan)

Nantes offers strong fare integration under a single PTA โ€” a unified Naolib ticket covers all urban modes with free transfers, generous multimodal products with TER, and uniquely free weekend rail+urban travel within the metro area. Weaknesses are a star-shaped tram network with no Taktfahrplan and the still-missing L1โ€“L2 direct connection, plus MaaS modes (bike-share, scooters) that remain only loosely tied to the transit ticket and app.

How easy it is to get around without a car. A separate measure, reported alongside the index.

Equity
50.0/100

How evenly distributed transit access is across the city

Physical Interchange
7.0/10

The new Gare PEM delivers seamless underground bus-SNCF integration with extensive cycling facilities, yet the star-network design forces all tram transfers through a congested central hub, limiting system-wide interchange efficiency.

Digital Information
8.0/10

Official Naolib app provides multimodal planning, real-time, mTicket for both Naolib and Alรฉop, plus comprehensive GTFS/GTFS-RT/SIRI open data feeding Google/Citymapper/Moovit; app reliability complaints and bike-share/car-share not natively in planner limit the score.

System Integration
6.0/10

Nantes integrates fares and service hours exceptionally across public transit and bike-share on weekends, but lacks timed transfer design and unified MaaS payment, with critical rail interchanges deferred until 2032.
