Baselland Transport AG (BLT for short) is a public transport company that operates bus and tramway in Basel and its surroundings.

BLT was formed in 1974 by merging of Birsigtalbahn (BTB), Birseckbahn (BEB), Trambahn Basel-Aesch (TBA), Basellandschaftliche Ueberlandbahn (BueB).

BLT now operates three tram lines (numbers 10, 11 and 17) of Basel tram network and about fifteen bus lines.

The tram line 10 is unique, because it crosses international border and goes to Leymen in France. It is one of only two international tramway lines in the World.
