About

UITP (Union Internationale des Transports Publics) is the International Association of Public Transport and a passionate champion of sustainable urban mobility. Established in 1885, with more than 135 years of history, it is the only worldwide network to bring together all public transport stakeholders and all sustainable transport modes.

Across the globe and every day, people rely on public transport to bring them to school, to work, to sports clubs and cafés. In using public transport millions travel more sustainably, safer and actively while bringing economic benefit to their community. UITP supports the entire sector to ultimately guarantee that public transport and its workers continue to bring cities to life.

Concretely :

• We release publications and statistics
• We organise events
• We lead research & innovation projects
• We deliver training programmes

From industry leading publications to organising our global public transport summit with over 15,000 visitors, bringing together the entire sector, and from partnerships with organisations like the WHO and UN-Habitat to cutting edge research projects; UITP works towards better mobility every single day.

While UITP’s main office has always been located in Brussels, Belgium, we established various regional divisions in the last 15 years. Seeking a local presence with our members, UITP opened 14 liaison and regional offices, two Centres for Transport Excellence and regional Training Centres across the globe.
