Transports Publics Genevois

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Transports Publics Genevois, (lit. Genevese Public Transports) locally known as the TPG, operates most of the public transportation system in Geneva (Switzerland). The TPG operates trams, trolleybuses and buses for the canton of Geneva and also serves some regions in neighbouring France. Local rail services are provided by the Chemins de Fer Fédéraux and passenger ferries across the lake by the Mouettes Genevoises Navigation. The TPG shares a common fare system (UNIRESO) with these services and some in neighbouring France so that a single ticket can be used for any public transport within its zones and times of validity.

In December 2003, the TPG began road-testing a 24 metre, double-articulated, mega-trolleybus manufactured by Vossloh Kiepe and Hess. The mega-trolleybus is 24 metres long and can carry 150 passengers. It is currently in service on the line 10 to the airport.

The TPG is the successor organization to the Compagnie Genevoise des Tramways Électriques (Genevan Electric Tramway Company), which operated trams throughout the canton and parts of neighboring France from 1900 until 1 January 1977.
