There are admittedly a few things that travelers can find confusing or downright unnerving about the French capital transport system (see Paris transport map). For one thing, trains and buses are more often than not overcrowded — and Paris status as one of the world most-visited cities does not help matters. For another, many Paris metro lines lack air-conditioning — positive from an ecological standpoint, but watch out for those summer steambaths (and grouchy travelers).
 
The Paris city government takes public transport very seriously, and every year a big chunk of the budget is reserved for improving traffic and passenger conditions in Paris trains, buses, and tramways as its shown in Paris transport map. In the coming years, you can expect Paris public transport to become more efficient, accessible and comfortable. Lots of new Paris stations are also being added, making it easier than ever to get around.
