The Gruppo Torinese Trasporti (GTT) is a public benefit corporation responsible for public transportation in the provinces of Turin, Alessandria, Cuneo and Asti. It was created in 2003 from the merge of ATM (Azienda Torinese Mobilità) and SATTI (Società Torinese Trasporti Intercomunali), the latter responsible for railway connection in the province of Turin as well as for the Turin metro. GTT is now wholly owned by the Turin City Hall.
GTT manages the urban and suburban public transport (the Turin tram system, with 10 lines, and bus network of 111 lines), the Turin subway service and 3 railway lines (82 km, plus other 24 managed for Trenitalia). The Turin metropolitan area is also served by extra-urban bus lines, reaching 220 different municipalities (comuni). GTT also manages minor services, such as the Sassi-Superga historical tramway, the Mole Antonelliana elevator, the City Sightseeing and also the touristic navigation on Po River.
In addition to the VAL Metro system, GTT operates two suburban commuter railways: the Ferrovia Canavesana and the Ferrovia Torino-Ceres.
The Ferrovia Canavesana connects the towns of Settimo, Volpiano, San Benigno Canavese, Bosconero, Feletto, Rivarolo Canavese, Favria, Salassa, Valperga, Cuorgnè and Pont Canavese to downtown Turin, having in Torino Porta Susa, the closest station to the city centre.
