Rome Public transportation

Rome's bus network is extensive and functions quite well, but the metro (subway) is much simpler for the short-term visitors. Public transportation must be purchased in advance from tabacchis, newsstands, bars, or vending machines (exact change only!) at metro and major bus stops. 

  • Subway. The Roma Metro (called Metropolitana by residents) goes round rather than through the historic city. It has only two lines, A (red) and B (blue), which cross at Termini Central Station. Trains run approximately every 7-10 minutes, from 5:30am until 11.30pm every day (until 0:30am on Saturdays).
  • Buses and Trams. There are hundreds of bus lines, running from 5:30am till midnight. All buses and trams travel in both directions. 
  • Electric buses. In an effort to minimize pollution in the small backstreets of the historic center, the city has established several electric bus lines to navigate alleyways barely wide enough for a Vespa.
  • Night buses Over 20 night bus lines run from 00:30am to 5:30am. The main terminal stations are Termini (Piazza dei Cinquecento) and Piazza Venezia. From these two piazzas buses leave for all directions every 30 minutes. Night bus stops are marked with an owl. You can purchase tickets on board.
  • Taxi If you need a taxi, remember to look for the official metered white taxis. There are taxi ranks in many locations throughout the center, but is nearly impossible to hail one driving down the streets, particularly at night. Make sure your taxi is metered; insist on the metered fare, rather than an arranged price. To call for a taxi within Rome, try 06 3570, 06 4994, 06 6645, 06 5551, or 06 8822. The following link Tariffe taxi contains all the information about all the applicable taxi fares (the page is only on italian lanuguage, hereafter you can download a PDF file, named Taxi Fares, in Italian, English and Spanish) .

Further information are available at Rome Public transport instutional web site ATAC Roma.
