Carte Azur: a single ticket for unlimited travel by bus and tram

18 March 2011

“Carte Azur”, a single ticket for unlimited travel by bus and tram, was launched on 28 February 2011. The multimodal and integrated new card system will allow travelers to validate their tickets on any bus and tram in the French region of Alpes-Maritime. The card is available on two networks, the Azur Lines and Monaco Envibus at the price of €365 per year or €45 per month.

Between mid-2011 and mid-2012, other Alpes-Maritimes (CARF, SITP, Sillages) networks will gradually integrate the system as soon as the on-board ticketing equipments are installed and operational. At the end of this period, the “Carte Azur” will offer a single multimodal pricing structure allowing all bus and tram users to enjoy unlimited travel in the department of Alpes-Maritimes and the Principality of Monaco.
