Transport edit

Rail edit

La Mare used to be served by a station of the former railway system.

In 2009, it was proposed to rebuild a railway system to cope with growing population and traffic congestion, albeit in a hybrid tram-train form, namely the Réunion Tram Train. La Mare is the northeastern terminus of the new network.
