A change in name is needed for TRAM (Les Transports de l’Agglomération Mulhousienne) which organises public transport in the metropolitan area.
Built on the root sol-, which gives it a Mediterranean feel, Soléa plays on the rich symbolism of the sun: light, warmth, joie de vivre, dynamism. Short and positive, this name represents the transport networks of the Mulhouse conurbation.
