St Etienne to Lyon??

I am plotting a quick getaway to Lyon. Ryan air has £10 fares from London and we'd be going for 24 hours flying through St Etienne.
The hitch is the transfer from St Etienne to Lyon. It's about 35 miles and I need to figure out how to transfer between the two cites. I do not want to rent a car, but am looking for a private transfer- or any other QUICK method between A and B.
Thank you

According to this website, there's a shuttle bus:

As St Cirq says there is a shuttle bus to Lyon Part-Dieu station.
There is more info and timetables on the airport website:

It's a Ryanair shuttle so it should be timed to fit in with your flight arrival/departure times. It takes an hour and a quarter which is reasonable.

An alternative to the shuttle would be to take a taxi to St Etienne train station, where there are trains departing every 30 minutes or so for Lyon (Perrache and Part Dieu stations). This probably wouldn't work out any quicker than the shuttle, however.

Thanks for the information. I'm trying to sort out the fastest method to get a group of six into Lyon. The ryanair shttle is probably the best bet.

The information above was very helpful. can anyone advise the approx. cost of a taxi from St Etienne city centre to Lyon airport? Or how long it would take?
Thanks in advance.
