Bus and Coach facilities
In Nice, coach parking is regulated.
Tourist coaches are permitted to circulate within the city of Nice but are not allowed to stop on the Promenade des Anglais to pick up passengers.
Passenger drop-off and pick-up
2 passenger drop-off zones close to the tramway lines:
- Drop-off authorised on Avenue du XVème Corps, behind Palais Jean Bouin
- Daytime drop-off authorised along Rue Pachot (Nice harbour district)
Touring coaches can also drop off at the foot of hotels (when the stop is signposted in front of the establishment).
