World Public Transport Day

A Horários do Funchal will make history by joining hundreds of transport operators worldwide to celebrate the first World Public Transport Day.

This global initiative, promoted by the International Association of Public Transport (UITP), aims to honor those who choose collective mobility and highlight the vital role the sector plays in the sustainability and prosperity of societies.

Horários do Funchal has been leading the transition to smarter mobility through the digitalization of the passenger experience, facilitating the daily lives of thousands of users. In the environmental area, HF reaffirms its commitment to decarbonization. The progressive introduction of electric and low-emission vehicles is fundamental to ensuring cleaner air and reducing noise pollution in Funchal.

Public transport occupies only about 10% of road space per passenger compared to individual transport, making it the most effective way to combat climate change in an urban environment.

The day celebrates, above all, people. From morning conversations to moments of reading on the way home, public transport is the link that allows citizens to progress in life and work.

The company prides itself on providing freedom and universal accessibility, ensuring a fleet prepared to welcome everyone safely and comfortably.

Horarios do Funchal invites all passengers to share their experiences and travel stories on social media, using the hashtags: #WorldPublicTransportDay #DiaMundialdoTransportePúblico and #HorariosdoFunchal
