The Compagnie générale française des transports et entreprises (English approximation: General Company of French Transport and Businesses), commonly known by the initialism CGFTE, was a company which managed public transportation networks in several French cities, including Bordeaux (TBC), Nancy ( ), Rouen (TCAR) and Chambéry (). It was formed in 1953 from Compagnie Générale Française de Tramways (CGFT), which was created in 1875.[1][2]
It was acquired by Compagnie Générale des Eaux (CGE) in 1980, and later absorbed into CGE subsidiary CGEA Transport.[1] CGEA Transport later became Connex in 1999, then Veolia Transport in 2005, and is now part of the Transdev group.[3] In 2003, Vivendi Environnement was renamed to Veolia Environnement.
