Express Line

TPBI constantly improves mobility in the Bucharest-Ilfov Region through various initiatives, and an important example is the Metropolitan Train, which has connected Gara de Nord to “Henri Coandă” Airport since December 2020. The route is operated by two companies, running non-stop at 40-minute intervals, with a journey time of approximately 20 minutes.

Compared to initial estimates, this project has proven to be a real success, with the number of passengers exceeding expectations tenfold in a relatively short period.

TPBI, together with its partners, has implemented fare integration between surface transportation, the metro, and the Metropolitan Train, offering modern payment options such as SMS, bank cards, smartphones, the 24PAY app, or subscriptions valid across all modes of transport, thus providing travelers with multiple mobility options.

Additionally, travelers can use Line 100, a high-capacity rapid bus service, with a frequency of 15-30 minutes, operating non-stop between Piața Unirii and Henri Coandă Airport in Bucharest. This service has a limited number of stops, ensuring a quick connection to key points in the city.
