Transportes Colectivos, S.A.
has been offering passengers road transport services, both urban
and suburban, in Bilbao’s metropolitan area, for more than 100
years.
Until the recent inauguration of underground train services, urban public transport
services were offered exclusively by our company. The underground was in
fact a milestone, for it provoked remarkable changes in the use of public
transport and the mobility of citizens within Bilbao’s metropolitan area.
The biggest challenge facing those who participate in the management of
citizen mobility in Bilbao and the whole of Biscay (public management
companies, politicians, private operators, social agents and citizens themselves) is
urban sustainability in all of its interpretations, in addition to mobility and accessibility.

It is essential to develop a series of initiatives which are not
only directed at increasing the services offered -which are
already quite considerable- but which also promote educational
campaigns and implement policies aimed at a more rational use of
the private automobile.
Such a
philosophy will help us face the many challenges posed by the new
century.
We
firmly believe that surface transport plays a key role in the resolution of mobility
problems. In collaboration with the other means of public transport, we
will work hard to improve and to provide our citizens with a better quality of life. And
we will do that according to demands of modern life and of the times we live in, paying special
attention to quality of service and the environment, fields in which we are currently
developing important initiatives.
Transportes Colectivos, S.A.
will always be up to the task of providing the quality of service which Biscay in general, and Bilbao’s metropolitan
area in particular, demands. |
