The Hasselt – Maastricht tramway (Dutch: Sneltram Hasselt - Maastricht) is a proposed fast tram system linking Hasselt, Belgian province of Limburg and Maastricht, Dutch province of Limburg. The project is part of the Spartacusplan of Belgian Limburg, proposed by the Belgian transport company De Lijn, with the aim to improve the province's transport links. The tramway is slated to open in 2017.
The tramway will run on a combination of new and old (to be reactivated) railways, and will facilitate an easier connection in a northeasternly direction between Maastricht (incl. the overall southern part of the Dutch Limburg province) and Antwerp (via Hasselt), as current rail services from the Dutch province to Belgium are solely in the southernly direction of Liège-Guillemins (via Maastricht).
