Regia Autonomă Oradea Transport Local, usually known just as OTL, is the municipal public transport operator in Oradea, Bihor, Romania. The network, although being fairly small for a city the size of Oradea, is somewhat efficient, and is made up of tram and bus lines.

Trams

There are three tram lines in Oradea, and these run together for most of their journey. The lines are 1, 2 and 3. Lines 1 and 4 run together in a city loop, while Line 2 joins part of this loop in part of its journey. All quarters except Vie are served by trams. Trams do not actually run in the city centre, since this is a beautiful Baroque area with narrow streets. They do, however, run on the border of the city in a loop, and then continue through to all the residential areas and quarters.

• Tram 1 (1 red 1R and 1 black 1N (completes the circuit the other way around)) runs from Sinteza Factory, which is located in the industrial west of Oradea, very close to the township of Borş and the Hungarian border, via the quarter of Rogerius, the central railway station, the city centre and then loops back to Rogerius.

• Tram 2 runs from Ioşia quarter via the southern city centre and the heart of the city (Unirii Square) to Cantemir quarter and then Nufărul. This is probably the most important route.

• Tram 3 (3 red 3R and 3 black 3N ) (completes the circuit the other way around)) runs from Nufărul and then does the city loop from the Civic Centre onwards, terminating back at the Civic Centre near the main market.
