The Toulouse Metro (French: Métro de Toulouse, Occitan: Mètro de Tolosa) is a rapid transit system serving Toulouse Métropole, France. It is the only metro system in Occitania. The city's public transport system was initially managed by the Société d'économie mixte des voyageurs de l'agglomération toulousaine (SEMVAT; literally the Toulouse Passengers' Mixed Economy Company), which was a company 80% owned by local government bodies and 20% privately owned. It has been managed by Tisséo Voyageurs, under the authority of Tisséo Collectivités, also named the Syndicat Mixte des Transports en Commun, an authority established by various local government bodies, since 2003.

In 2018, the network was used by 110.3 million passengers. The Toulouse Metro consists of two primarily-underground metro lines, Line A and Line B, which together serve 37 stations and comprise 28.2 kilometres (17.5 mi) of route. It is supplemented by the Toulouse railway network (including suburban Line Arènes-Colomiers (formerly Line C, the name was changed to avoid confusion with the future metro line), Line D and Line F), the Toulouse tramway (Line T1 and T2, formerly Line E, which serve the northwestern suburbs and Toulouse–Blagnac Airport) and Téléo, an urban Tricable gondola line in the south of the city.
