چکیده

This paper explores tramway-oriented development within two different cultures, France and the Czech Republic, which nevertheless have significant factors in common with regard to the goal of promoting the modal share of mass transit from a sustainable development perspective.

The strengths and weaknesses on each side and the potential for transfer of “bestpractices” are further considered.
