A strategic network for Florence

With two lines spanning 19 km and 43 stations, GEST’s tramway links major urban and tourist hubs, including Florence Airport. Every day, 140,000 passengers use the service - over 36 million trips annually.

Reliability and comfort guaranteed

Punctuality reaches 99%, and passenger satisfaction stands at 97.6%. These results make the tramway a preferred choice for residents and visitors, ensuring fast and comfortable journeys.

Committed to sustainable mobility

The extension of Line T2, operational since January 2025, reflects Florence’s commitment to improving intermodal connections and reducing its carbon footprint. GEST embodies RATP Dev’s global expertise applied to local challenges: safety, innovation, and energy transition.

Thanks to the new contracts signed with our client at the end of 2025, over the next four years the network will expand to the southern part of the city, resulting in an increase in the kilometers of production lines.

Florence’s tramway is more than just transportation - it’s a driver of urban and tourist transformation. By connecting the city center to the airport, we deliver a seamless, sustainable experience tailored to residents and visitors alike.
