Strætó is joining the global celebration for the first ever World Public Transport Day on 17 April 2026. The day is a global initiative led by , the International Association of Public Transport, highlighting the importance of public transport for everyday life, communities, and the environment. On this occasion, Strætó will encourage people and passengers to share their experiences using different modes of transport.
The aim is to celebrate the role public transport plays – getting people from place to place, to work, school, and leisure – and to recognise the people who make it all possible. This year’s theme is: One Day. Millions of Journeys.
Public transport plays a key role in building greener and more efficient cities. It reduces traffic and improves air quality. Every day, millions of journeys are made by public transport around the world.
In recent years, Strætó has taken important steps towards more sustainable operations by investing in electric buses, with the goal of achieving a fully carbon-neutral fleet by the end of 2029.
This is a great opportunity to pause and reflect on the role public transport plays in our daily lives – and in keeping our communities moving.
