How to get to Centrale Nantes?

 

Arrival by Train - Gare SNCF


Using a taxi

A taxi ride from the train station takes about 20 minutes and costs round about €20.
 

Using the tramway

Take tram line 1 direction Jamet/François Mittérand and get off at stop "Commerce" (it is the third stop from Gare du SNCF). At Commerce take tram line 2 direction Orvault Grand-Val, and get off at the stop "Ecole Centrale - Audencia". The Campus is a 1-2 minute walk from the tram stop. A tram ticket valid for 1 hour will cost €1.60 and can be used on buses as well.


 

Arrival By Plane - Aéroport Nantes Atlantique


From the airport, take the shuttle ("navette" in French) and get off at the next stop "Neustrie"; here, take tramline 3 direction Marcel Paul and get off at the stop "Commerce". At "Commerce" take tram line 2 direction Orvault Grand-Val, and get off at the stop "Ecole Centrale - Audencia". The Campus is a 1-2 minute walk from the tram stop.

Do not take the shuttle to the stop "Commerce", it is faster but much more expensive (€9 + the price of a bus/tram ticket). If you do as suggested above you'll just pay the price of a bus/tram ticket (€1.60). Ask the shuttle driver for the ticket if you do not want to have problems.
