The Compagnie des transports strasbourgeois ( CTS ) is a French mixed-economy company and was founded in Strasbourg in 1877 in what was then the German Empire , Alsace-Lorraine, under the name of the Strasbourg Horse Railway Company . Its main goal was the development of public passenger transport in the area of what is now the city of Strasbourg ( Eurométropole de Strasbourg ).
The current CTS currently operates six tram lines , a bus network and eight Park & Ride spaces in the Eurométropole de Strasbourg area. At the same time, it also operates 27 regional bus routes through its subsidiary CTBR ( Compagnie des transports du Bas-Rhin ) and on behalf of the General Council of the Bas-Rhin department , nine of which serve stops in Strasbourg. In addition, the CTS participates in the Vélhop bicycle rental company of the Eurométropole de Strasbourg and manages the tourist train in Strasbourg, also known as minitram .
history
1877 was Strassburger horse-drawn railway company and from 1888 the Strassburger streetcar company was founded. Only after the First World War and the associated reconnection of Alsace-Lorraine to France did the company get the French name in 1919: Compagnie des tramways strasbourgeois (CTS) . On July 22, 1878, the first horse-powered tram went into operation. The company expanded its network with financial support from banks such as B. the Straehling-Valentin. In 1894, as a result of a partnership between the city of Strasbourg and the Allgemeine Elektricitäts-Gesellschaft ( AEG ), electrification of the tram network began. In 1900 the network counted 15 tram lines on 50 kilometers of track. From 1939 on, the Roethig – Ostwald line was operated as a trolleybus . On May 1, 1960, a tram ran for the last time in Strasbourg, and in early 1962 the last trolleybus routes were abandoned. These last operated on lines 28 (Rœthig - Ostwald), 5/15 (place Broglie - Quartier des Quinze) and 10 (ring line). After the tram was discontinued, 20% fewer passengers used public transport. At the end of the 1980s, there were two transport systems to choose from, either the construction of a metro or the introduction of the VAL system. In 1989 the city finally decided to build a tram network. The first line went into operation on November 26, 1994.
Tram network
The tram network currently consists of six lines (A, B, C, D, E, F) and has been in operation since 1994. There are 94 trams on the 55.8 km of Strasbourg tram tracks: 53 Eurotrams and 41 Citadis . In 2015, 68.2 million trips were made by tram.

Acceleration on important lines
Starting with work from 2016, 8 million euros are to be invested in the bus network within four years. The busiest lines will be structurally improved. Work will begin on line 15, on which passenger numbers have increased the most in the past year. The route remains unchanged, but buses are given priority at 25 intersections and separate bus lanes are set up on 5 km. The most important stops will have ticket machines and a passenger information system. The aim is to reduce travel times by around 4 to 5 minutes and to achieve a punctuality rate of 80%. The line started operating on April 29, 2017 under the new number "L1". Next, lines 2, 4 and 6 are accelerated.
Metrobus
Since November 30, 2013, a Metrobus ( bus à haut niveau de service ) has been running between the main train station and the Espace Européen de l'Entreprise in Schiltigheim . The way it works is similar to a tram: it travels in a separate lane, has right of way at intersections and entry is possible at all doors. For this reason, the bus route was designated with a letter. Further lines are being planned.
