Saint-Louis is in Grand-Est. Despite being separated from it by an international border, it serves in many ways as a suburb of Basel, including being linked to its tram network.

By tram

A tram line across the border from neighbouring Basel opened in December 2017. There are plans to eventually extend the line all the way to the airport.

By bus

Buses 603, 604, and 607 run from Basel (from the Schifflände bus stop), €2.80 (Aug 2018). In France, these routes drop the leading "60", and thus are numbered 3, 4, and 7 respectively.
