Actv S.p.A. (Azienda del Consorzio Trasporti Veneziano) is a public company responsible for public transportation in Venice and Chioggia municipalities and for interurban bus services in province of Venice. ACTV is not responsible for Venice People Mover (managed by AVM) or waterbus routes between airport and the lagoon area (managed by Alilaguna). Connections by bus with Venice airport are managed by ACTV and by ATVO.
History
[edit]The first testing of a regular public transportation service took place in 1881 when the first Queen Margherita vaporetto was used for transport along the Grand Canal. The service was then acquired by the French company, the Compagnie des Bateaux Omnibus, which operated eight steamers until 1890. It was then replaced by the Società Veneta Lagunare, who subsequently extended the line by offering routes towards the mainland. In 1903, the Municipality of Venice approved the direct management of the mainland services to ACNI (Azienda Comunale per la Navigazione Interna) the then ACNIL, which began its operation in 1904.
With the opening of the Ponte della Libertà in 1933, and the newly constructed car terminal in Piazzale Roma, ACNIL extended its management to supervising over the Venice-Mestre section, while the Società Anonima Tramvie of Mestre managed the remaining areas.
In 1941, ACNIL was given clearance to directly manage the land transportation on the Lido Island. This happened following the cessation of the tram service by the Compagnia Italiana Grandi Alberghi (CIGA) who managed the island up until that point.
During World War II, a large part of the fleet of boats was used by the Italian Army and the Navy for military practice purposes and by the end of the War, many of the vessels were found sunken or seriously damaged. Following this, a program aimed at repairing and replacing the boats as well as updating the ancillary parts of the service (landing points, piers and pontoons) was put into place.
In 1965, ACNIL acquired the transport service of Mestre and the mainland, taking over from Società Filovie Mestre. In 1966, the trolleybuses were phased out and the entire fleet was replaced with buses.
On 1 October 1978, the Company of the Venetian Transport Consortium (ACTV) was founded.
In 1996, a night bus service was introduced which replaced the routes that the regular buses took.
In 2006, the ACTV corporate offices were transferred to Tronchetto.
Network

[edit]Lagoon area
[edit]The main public transportation means are motorized waterbuses (vaporetti), which ply regular routes along the Grand Canal and between the city's islands.
Lido and Pellestrina islands
[edit]Lido and Pellestrina are two islands forming a barrier between the southern Venetian Lagoon and the Adriatic Sea. On those islands, road traffic is allowed. There are bus and waterbus services linking the islands with other islands (Venice, Murano, Burano) and with the peninsula of Cavallino-Treporti.
Mainland
[edit]The mainland of Venice is composed of 4 boroughs: Mestre-Carpenedo, Marghera, Chirignago-Zelarino and Favaro Veneto. Mestre is the central and the most populated urban area of the Venice mainland. There are several bus routes and two tramway lines. Several bus routes link the mainland with Piazzale Roma, the main bus station in Venice, via Ponte della Libertà a road bridge connecting the historical center of the city of Venice to the mainland.
