TER Picardie is one of 17 transport companies that provides the local public transport (PT) logistics for the French region of Picardy . Half of the company is run by the French state railway SNCF and half by the region. TER Picardy is one of 22 TER associations in France.

The system was introduced in 2002 and after the first four years brought an increase in passenger traffic of 14.4 percent. According to the company, this improvement in acceptance is based primarily on investments in new rolling stock and improvements at the stations.
