Florence's local bus network is run by Autolinee Toscane, which took over from ATAF in November 2021 - though plenty of locals and older references still call it "ATAF" out of habit. We have a Florence Bus route map, and a city center electric minibus map.
This page previously described ATAF, which stopped operating Florence's buses on October 31, 2021. Below is current information on Autolinee ... read more.
Autolinee Toscane, the company that runs Florence's local buses, publishes an official network map covering all urban lines - current as of 2026.
The four electric minibus lines that circulate inside the pedestrianized center - C1, C2, C3, and C4 - are on this network map too, but at this scale they're hard to follow. For those specifically, see our interactive C1-C4 minibus map, with the full ro... read more.
In November of 2021 Autolinee Toscane became the single operator for all local and regional bus services in Florence and Tuscany, absorbing what used to be separate companies for each area - ATAF (Florence), SITA/Busitalia, CAP (Prato), Lazzi (Arezzo, Lucca, Montecatini Terme, Prato, Viareggio), PiùBus, and others.

The trams won't carry you past the Duomo; nothing on rails enters the pedestrianized historic center, where a fleet of small electric minibuses does that job instead. What the Tramvia does well is get you to the edge ... read more.
This information is out of date! SITA (short for "Busitalia"), stopped being the bus service in Florence, Italy on October 31, 2021. Management of Florence's bus service was shifted to Autolinee Toscane, which is in charge of bus services throughout Tuscany. Busitalia has service in Umbria, Venento, and Campania, and it looks like they have one route left in Tuscany - The Mall Bus. The airport se... read more.
