The Aubagne tramway (French: Tramway d'Aubagne) is a tram system in the commune of Aubagne, Aix-Marseille-Provence Metropolis, France. It consists of a single 2.8 km (1.7 mi) line called Line T, which serves seven stations since its inauguration on 1 September 2014 and does not charge fares.[1]

Since 27 August 2017, the operation and maintenance of the Aubagne tramway has been entrusted to the Régie des transports métropolitains (RTM) of Marseille, via its transport subsidiary of Pays de l'Étoile. A northern extension from Aubagne station to the commune of La Bouilladisse is scheduled to open by 2025; it will bring the line's number of stations to seventeen.
