The Nancy Guided Light Transit or TVR was a guidedtrolleybus system in Nancy, France. The system used Bombardier's TVR (French: Transport sur Voie Réservée) technology. It encompassed one era, from 2000 to 2023, of the Nancy trolleybus system and replaced the conventional trolleybus service in Nancy during that period.[1] The GLT/TVR system was closed on 12 March 2023, and is to be replaced by conventional trolleybuses serving the same route.[2]
The system was implemented as a replacement for the trolleybus network.[1] Operation of the 11.1 km (6.9 mi) long line began in 2000. The system had problems with derailing vehicles, as well as heavy wear and tear of the pavement.[1] In 2018, 12 vehicles from Caen were transferred to Nancy for use as spare parts donors.[3]
Closure and replacement
The TVR system was planned to be replaced by a conventional low-floor tram system;[1] however, due to high costs and steep gradients the TVR was replaced by trolleybuses.
