The Gruppo Torinese Trasporti (GTT) is a public benefit corporation responsible for public transportation in the provinces of Alessandria, Cuneo, Asti and the Metropolitan City of Turin. It was created in 2003 from the merge of ATM (Azienda Torinese Mobilità) and SATTI (Società Torinese Trasporti Intercomunali), the latter responsible for railway connection in the province of Turin as well as for the Turin metro. GTT is now wholly owned by the Turin City Hall.
GTT manages the urban and suburban public transport (the Turin tram system, with 10 lines, and bus network of about 110 lines), the Turin Metro and 3 railway lines (82 km, plus other 24 managed for Trenitalia). The Turin metropolitan area is also served by about 70 extra-urban bus lines, reaching 220 different municipalities (comuni). GTT also manages minor services, such as the Sassi-Superga historical tramway, the Mole Antonelliana elevator, the City Sightseeing and also the touristic navigation on Po River.
GTT Railways
GTT operates as infrastructure manager for two railway routes: Torino-Ceres and Ferrovia Canavesana.
GTT suspended railway operations on the Torino-Ceres railway on 11 June 2023, while the railway service on the Canavesana railway was taken over by Trenitalia as early as 1 January 2021.
It is expected that the Canavesana railway will pass to RFI in the future, while the Torino-Ceres railway, which since 25 August 2020 has been limited to Venaria for the connection works to the Turin railway link, will be managed by Trenitalia and RFI from January 2024.
The Settimo station, just northern to Turin, is particularly important, in that it allows the interchange with the Turin-Milan and Turin-Aosta inter-regional railroads, operated by Trenitalia.
The Ferrovia Torino-Ceres (also known as Torino-Valli di Lanzo) is a commuter railway connecting the towns of Ceres, Lanzo Torinese, Cirié, Caselle Torinese and others to downtown Turin. As of 2011[update], the closest station to the city centre is Torino Dora.
The section from Torino Dora to Porta Milano (close to Piazza della Repubblica and downtown Turin) operated from 1923 to 1987 but has long been discontinued, though a proposition for its reuse has recently been moved (2014). However, both this section and its continuation up to Madonna di Campagna train station will be discontinued in the near future, at least as part of the Torino-Ceres railway line. Overall, this whole section will be replaced by a new one running underground along Corso Grosseto and this new track will eventually reach Torino Rebaudengo Fossata so to join the Turin-Milan railway, locally called "Passante Ferroviario di Torino" ("Turin Railway Bypass").
GTT owns ten tramway routes, one of which being the Sassi-Superga tramway. The historic route 7 where only heritage trams are operated by the Associazione Torinese Tram Storici, is not operated by GTT.[1] The routes are:
The line M1 of the Turin Metro, so far the system's only active line, connects the Fermi Station in Collegno to the piazza Bengasi district via Corso Francia, Porta Susa, and Porta Nuova, for a total of 23 stops.
GTT Bus Routes
GTT operates various bus routes in Turin, Moncalieri and the nearby suburbs, alongside the urban routes of the small town of Ivrea. Some routes are managed by GTT directly, while others are operated on a concessionary base by other operators such as Miccolis; Bus Company, SADEM by Arriva; Giachino; and Cavourese.
