There are also 17 tram routes, which offer connections to places not
accessible with the subway. At some places, especially in the city centre,
ordinary trams run underground and stop at stations. This is called the
pre-metro, because it was designed with a future conversion in mind, with
tunnels and stations of the same dimensions as on metro lines.
Trams are yellow and blue. There are 68 stations for the whole subway network. OperatorsThe subway and trams are operated by STIB / MIVB, which also runs 45 urban bus routes, covering the whole city. There are 2 other companies operating suburban lines. De Lijn has routes in many parts of the city and offers connection with the Flemish suburbs all around Brussels. TEC connects Walloon suburbs and only runs across the southern districts of the city. The national railway company is named SNCB / NMBS. There are 28 railway stations all over the city, 3 of which in the city centre and 2 in the European District. Fares and ticketingOrdinary tickets are compatible between all the operators all over the city. The "MTB season pass" gives access to the whole network within Brussels. There are other kinds of tickets and passes restricted to the network of a single operator. Tickets are valid for one hour, starting from the moment when you insert the ticket into a validating machine. |
