Transport in Turin

Urban, suburban and interurban public transport in Turin is run by Gruppo Torinese Trasporti, which belongs to FCT Holding, a financial company controlled by the city, and which carries about two hundred million passengers a year; the same company runs the automated metro system and, alongside transport, paid parking and some tourist services.

The railways

The city is linked to Caselle airport and the Lanzo Valleys by the Turin-Ceres railway, fifty-two kilometres long: since 20 January 2024 the new connection with the rail link lets trains cross the city, and on 13 September 2026 the line returned to service as far as Ceres after three years of suspension, at the end of works worth eighty million euros funded from the national recovery plan.

The area of Porta Susa station is covered by a redevelopment agreed between the city, FS Sistemi Urbani and RFI, which includes restoring the historic building and new uses for the land north of the station.

Space given back to pedestrians

Downtown, the pedestrianisation of via Roma, celebrated on 12 September 2026 with more than fifty thousand people, returned the axis between piazza Castello and piazza Carlo Felice to pedestrians: the street was repaved in stone and raised to the level of the arcades, and at the junction with piazza Castello the GTT stop bay was shortened.
