Description
With the South Park and Ride, inaugurated on February 2001, the people of Parma have discovered a new way of getting around. Car+bus has become for many a pleasant habit and it is part of the sustainable mobility project of the Municipality of Parma and Tep S.p.A. Our final goal is turning into reality: a city with fewer cars and many alternative solutions for the rapid transportation of people.
