On 17 April 2026, the world comes together to celebrate World Public Transport Day—a global recognition of the essential role that public transport plays in our daily lives, the vitality of our cities, and the sustainability of our planet. Public transport is far more than a way to get from one place to another. It is the foundation that helps people access jobs, education, healthcare, and opportunities, while fostering cleaner, healthier, and more connected communities.

From railways to metros and trams, these systems form the backbone of sustainable urban mobility, creating safer, more efficient, and more reliable journeys for millions every day.
