Le Mans Tram to Town?

[A10ARF]

Does anyone know the latest on the new tram service that was to be completed I think late last year or sometime this year?

On the construction work I saw in 2007, the rails seemed to cross the road that led to the 'Brit Bar' by the bridge.

Was wondering if it's possible to attend both the town parade and the Pit walk without having to face the traffic jams (and also able to enjoy a beer or two as not having to drive!)

Also imagine the other thousands may have the same idea too tho!

It is all up and running now so you can hop on the tram at Tertre Rouge and head into the city centre. Should be good without all the traffic jams and struggling to find somewhere to park.

Cool, saw him about a week ago, sounds like he's all set for this year. You looking to watch the Group C cars this year? I miss the morning race every year, not this time, lol.
Our Houx Annexe passes are confirmed and paid for so will prob stick with those. Spesh as we are a 3 car convoy now. You Still setting off on the Tues?

Monday night old bean, knocking off work about 12ish to get the 6:30 boat and met up with the Hymer at Aire de Somme.

Shame about not getting the big group on Houx, talk to me first though if you do get off the reserve list

At least we will be within a mile of each other for a change! Oh and we ARE going karting this year, even if i have to buy you a shoehorne!!!

Prob not karting to be fair, but dont worry about the reserve list, no plans to come off it. We'll evaluate the situation once we have all the cards in our hands
