UITP offers a unique platform for inter-sectoral dialogue and for exchange between:
-
operating companies;
- local, regional and national authorities;
- the service and supply industry; and
- research institutes, academics and consultants.
UITP covers all modes of public transport - metro, bus, light rail, regional, suburban railways, and waterborne transport.
UITP is structured around regional, sectoral, modal and thematic working bodies. By participating in one or more of these platforms (depending on your field of activity and/or region of origin), you can contribute to the development of a wide range of projects and initiatives.

Events for everyone
The UITP World Congress is a biennial milestone for all public transport stakeholders. The congress presents the latest developments as far as institutional organisation, technology, policy, industrial innovations, financial schemes and integrated mobility are concerned. Members benefit from very attractive conditions for participating in this event.
The theme of the next 58th World Congress and Mobility & City Transport Exhibition to take place in Vienna from 7 to 11 June 2009, will be ‘Public transport: Making the right mobility choices’.
UITP also organises a large variety of thematic and regional events that offer regular opportunities to network and develop professional exchanges. They bring unique opportunities for discussion and debate at the highest level. A majority of events are exclusively reserved to members. For events that are also open to non-members, our members always enjoy a reduced registration fee.
“Some of our most significant developments made in recent years have been a direct result of participating in the UITP World Congress.”
Abdul Aziz Malik, CEO Dubai Taxi Agency, Roads and Transport Authority, United Arab Emirates
“Participating in UITP events has enabled us to keep abreast of international developments in public transport.”
