START ROMAGNA is the new public transport agency in Romagna. The company is a fusion between the local agencies of public transport management, AVM (area Forlì-Cesena), ATM (area Ravenna) and TRAM SERVIZI (Rimini Province).
Since 2017 Rimini has new buses, which improve the environmental impact and give comfort to passengers. They have from 26 to 36 seats, and a space equipped for the disabled in wheelchairs, an automatic access platform for wheelchairs and numerous technological innovations, such as information on mobile, electronic ticketing via app ( Roger, Muver, DropTicket® and myCicero®), video surveillance systems and passenger counting.
Since November 2019, the TRC (Costal Rapid Transport), called Metromare, has been active. A new rapid, ecological and technological public transport system, which connects Rimini to Riccione in 23 minutes, for a more sustainable mobility system.
