===Metro, tram and bus=== {{main|Amsterdam Metro|Trams in Amsterdam}} [[File:Amsterdam - Keizersgracht - 1316.jpg|thumb|A tram crossing the Keizersgracht]] [[File:NoordZuidLijn Metrostation Europaplein hnapel 004.jpg|thumb|The [[Amsterdam Metro]] is a mixed subway and above ground [[Rapid Transit|rapid transit system]] consisting of five lines.]] Currently, there are sixteen [[Trams in Amsterdam|tram routes]] and five [[Amsterdam Metro|metro routes]]. All are operated by the municipal public transport operator [[Gemeentelijk Vervoerbedrijf]] (GVB), which also runs the city bus network. Four fare-free GVB ferries carry pedestrians and cyclists across the [[IJ (Amsterdam)|IJ lake]] to the [[Boroughs of Amsterdam|borough]] of [[Amsterdam-Noord]], and two fare-charging ferries run east and west along the harbour. There are also privately operated water taxis, a water bus, a boat-sharing operation, electric rental boats, and canal cruises, that transport people along Amsterdam's waterways. Regional buses, and some suburban buses, are operated by [[Connexxion]] and [[Egged (company)|EBS]]. International coach services are provided by [[Eurolines]] from [[Amsterdam Amstel railway station]], [[IDBUS]] from [[Amsterdam Sloterdijk railway station]], and [[Megabus (Europe)|Megabus]] from the Zuiderzeeweg in the east of the city. To facilitate easier transport to the centre of Amsterdam, the city has various P+R Locations where people can park their car at an affordable price and transfer to one of the numerous public transport lines.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Parkeren + Reizen (P+R) Amsterdam β I amsterdam |url=https://www.iamsterdam.com/nl/op-bezoek/parkeren/parkeren-en-verder-reizen |website=www.iamsterdam.com |access-date=22 October 2017 |archive-date=22 October 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171022193919/https://www.iamsterdam.com/nl/op-bezoek/parkeren/parkeren-en-verder-reizen |url-status=dead}}</ref>
