	Citadis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Citadis is a low-floor tram built by Alstom in La Rochelle, France, currently in use around the world, in (among others), the Paris region, Lyon, Montpellier, Bordeaux, Orléans, Rotterdam, Dublin (see Luas), Melbourne (see Trams in Melbourne), and Katowice / Metropolian Katowice (see Silesian Interurbans).
		Like most trams, Citadis vehicles are usually powered by overhead electric wires, but Bordeaux uses ground-level power supply, with which they are powered by a third rail even in the city centre, where the tracks are not always segregated from pedestrians and cars.
		Citadis is close to a monopoly market because all new trams in France are low floored and almost all of them are Citadis trams from Alstom.
