Indeed, the city has won the vote of many business leaders who saw the opportunity to promote their activity. An extensive transport network runs through it. First, by rail, with two TGV stations – Lille-Flandres and Lille-Europe – linking to Paris or the border countries via Eurostar. And also a whole regional network, marked by the stations of Lille-CHR, Porte-de-Douai, Mont-de-Terre, Lezennes and Hellemes, linking the metropolis to Béthune, Valenciennes, Arras, the Opal Coast and Orchies.

In addition, 5 motorways provide access to Paris, Brussels, and London (A1, A23, A25, A22 and A27), and Lille is home to France’s third largest river port and an international airport.

As for transport within the city or to its outskirts, Lille obviously has an efficient public transport network, including several metro and tramway signs. And in line with the development of soft mobility and the preference of many inhabitants for cycling, several hundred kilometres of cycle paths now line the city and its outskirts.
