Depending on where you come from, you will arrive at one or the other. (More probably Lyon Part-Dieu...)

The airport in Lyon is called Saint-Exupery. There is a special tramway line that goes from the center of Lyon (Lyon Part-Dieu) to the aiport : more details on the site of "RhôneExpress.

Several buses pass by the CISL: buses C16, C22 and C25, and the tramway T4. The name to stop at the center is "Professeur Beauvisage - CISL". These are some possibilities:
- You arrive from the train station "Lyon Part-Dieu", either one of
- Tramway T4, direction Hopital Feyzin Venissieux, get off at stop "Professeur Beauvisage - C.I.S.L." Note, the tramway stop from Lyon Part-Dieu is on the side "gare Part-Dieu Villette" of the train station (frequency : every 15 minutes environ, travel around 15 minutes)
- Take Bus C25, direction Sogaris - Promotrans, get off at stop "Professeur Beauvisage - CISL" (frequency: every 15 minutes, travel around 20 minutes).
- You arrive from the train station "Lyon Perrache".
- Tramway T2, direction St Priest Bel Air, get off at « Jet d'Eau - Mendes France ».
- transfer: tramway or bus:
- T4 tram, direction Hospital Feyzin Venissieux, get off at stop "Professor Beauvisage - C.I.S.L."
- bus C25, direction St Priest Plaine de Saythe, get off at stop "Professeur Beauvisage - C.I.S.L."
Frequency of tram: every 10 minutes, travel : 20/25 minutes.

The simplest is to follow road No. 383 and take the exit "États-Unis". There is no private parking but street parking is easy and free!
