The Utrechtse sneltram (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈytrɛxtsə ˈsnɛltrɛm]; literally Utrecht fast tram), operating under the brand name U-OV, is a light rail system in the Dutch city of Utrecht. The system consists of three tram routes connecting Utrecht Centraal railway station with the residential areas of Lombok and Kanaleneiland and the suburbs Nieuwegein and IJsselstein to the southwest of the station, and with the Uithof district and Utrecht University to the southeast.
