TWISTO - SE DÉPLACER À CAEN

To get around easily throughout the Caen la Mer area, use the Twisto reflex!

The public transport network, managed by the Caen la Mer urban community, comprises 3 tramway lines and 70 bus routes criss-crossing the region. It's got it all: wide-ranging timetables, local and long-distance routes, and even a cute little red electric shuttle - and it's free - in downtown Caen! The brackets are rechargeable and can be used with NomadCar14 or SNCF TER trains on the Bretteville-Norrey > Caen line - not bad, eh? Twisto also offers a host of services to make your day-to-day life easier: on-demand booking, real-time traffic information... And don't forget their super-smart app, which lets you calculate your route, find out when your bus/tram is due to arrive next, thanks to geolocation, and buy your ticket on e-Ticket.

Twisto Vélo. All in the saddle! Twisto is also a self-service bicycle system. How does Vélolib work? You pick up a bike at one of the 22 stations and drop it off at another. We've tried it out for you: the first time, registering at the terminal, quickly choosing your bike, unhooking it... It can get stressful, but everything goes smoothly. Admittedly heavy (we modified our itinerary a little), the bike is very stable, the saddle really comfortable, the brakes in perfect condition, and we were able to enjoy a great ride on Caen's many cycle paths. What's more, if you take out a subscription, you get a free battery. How nice!

Twisto Access. On-demand transport service for people with reduced mobility. Adapted vehicles circulate in 48 communes of Caen la mer, providing a door-to-door service dedicated to people with mobility difficulties. Thanks to this service, every corner (or almost every corner!) and every journey in the heart of the Urban Community (work, doctor, school, shopping, leisure...) becomes accessible to all.

Parcs Relais. To make your life easier, there are also park-and-ride facilities. These are parking lots reserved for subscribers and passengers with a Twisto ticket. Leave your vehicle and continue your journey by bus or streetcar. To leave the parking lot, simply present your validated ticket (contactless ticket or Twisto Atoumod card).

Twisto Auto. If you want to travel outside your line's operating hours or outside Caen la Mer, there's another solution for you: Twisto Auto. Do you have a driving license? Thanks to this service, accessible 24/7 via your smartphone, you can use a self-service car for occasional needs (€5 per hour). The network currently has eight Twisto Auto vehicles (electric Zoé and hybrid Clio) at eight stations in Caen, Hérouville-Saint-Clair and Ouistreham. So reserve your vehicle, unlock it using your phone and enjoy the freedom! More information on twisto.fr
