requirements.

11. Methods of transportation in Rome

12. Airports in Rome
Rome has two airports - Fiumicino (Leonardo da Vinci)
and Ciampino.
Fiumicino
This is Rome’s main airport and is well-connected with the center during the day by
an express train.
The express train between Fiumicino Airport and Station Terminal (Rome's main train
station) costs € 9.50(37rm) and the journey takes about 30 minutes. The train departs
from and arrives at Terminal station 6.30am till 11.30pm.
Ciampino
Rome's smaller airport, is mostly used by charter flights and budget airlines.
To get to the center from this airport, take COTRAL bus, get off at Metro A: Anagnina
station, then to Termini Station.
COTRAL bus runs every 30 minutes, until 11pm. The only way how to get to Rome
after this time is to take taxi.

14. Rome on two wheels
Rome is the European capital and the western world city with the
highest number of motorcycle vehicles in circulation, with its over
400,000 units.
( ACI data at December 31, 2011). This data helps us to understand
why the city has had to adapt over the years to accommodate the
growing number of motorcyclists.
Motorcycles

15. Public transport
1-Trains.
2-Metro.
3-Trams.
4-Buses.

18. Train
The train is a great way of seeing Italy with a good network of
inter-city and regional, plus urban services. For the most part rail is a
much stronger proposition than any bus services between major towns
and cities, buses largely only compete on urban and some regional
services.
Trains serving Rome are no exception. The main central station in
Rome is Termini Station. Not only the main railway station but major
transport interchange for Rome of all kinds. Termini Station is the hub
of the limited Rome Metro network. And Termini is where you will find
the main bus station for local buses in Rome and airport buses and
trains.

19. Rome Metro
If you dig four feet underground nearly anywhere in Rome
you run into Roman ruins, so it’s no surprise that Rome’s
subway consists of only two lines;Metropolitana Linea A, and
Metropolitana Linea B.
(They started building a third line many years ago, but the
construction site quickly became an archaeological dig, so
there’s no telling how long it’ll be before the Rome Metro is
more than its current two limited lines.)

20. Continue Rome metro
when you’re in the city center, chances are good you may not find the
Metro all that useful. Yes, some of Rome’s big tourist sights are on a
Metro line (the Colosseum has a Metro stop, for instance, and there’s one
not far from the Vatican), and the big Termini train station has its own
Metro stop – but lots of other major Rome sights aren’t anywhere near a
Metro stop. Rome’s Metro lines only intersect at one point – Termini
Station. Each Metro stop is marked by a square, red sign with a white M
on it. Single-use Metro tickets cost €1 each, good for 75 minutes from
when you validate the ticket.

21. Trams
You might look at the trams in Rome and think they’re a separate thing from
the buses and the Metro. Since they’re run by the same company as the buses and
Metro, however, they’re part of the same transportation network – and in fact, tram
lines are listed on Rome bus maps along with the bus lines.
There are only seven tram lines in Rome, and there’s some overlap between the
tram routes and the bus and Metro routes. The trams most visitors end up taking
regularly are the ones out to the Trastevere neighborhood from the other side of the
river. Other tram stops that could be useful are at the Colosseum, the Vatican, and
near the Pantheon – otherwise, the trams tend to steer fairly clear of the historic city
center.

22. Buses in Rome
Rome’s bus network is intricate and extremely handy for
getting around the city. It takes a bit more to figure it out than
the incredibly simple Metro, but once you get the hang of it
you’ll feel like you’ve got a special pass to see the city
There are hundreds of bus lines, running from 5:30am till
midnight. All buses and trams travel in both directions.

23. Electric buses
In an effort to minimize pollution in the small backstreets of
the historic center, the city has established several electric bus
lines to navigate alleyways barely wide enough for a Vespa.

24. Taxis in Rome
There are almost as many taxis in Rome as there are tourists, it
seems, so you’ll have no trouble finding one if that’s your style. Taxis
are especially plentiful at major tourist areas – the Colosseum, the
Vatican, Termini Station, etc.
Despite what you might think, taking a taxi in Rome isn’t always the
fastest way to get between two points. It might seem more direct than a
roundabout bus line or a Metro trip going on the wrong direction, but
Rome’s traffic can be horrible – so that “direct” route could have you at
a standstill for awhile.

25. Renewal Energy
Italy tended in recent years to rely on alternative
and renewable energy sources. Where it doubled to
take advantage of those sources of 3-fold from(6.5%)
in 2004 to (16.7%) in 2014. The sources varied such as
solar and wind power and energy generated from water
flowing. Each of these sources contributed to reduce
pollution and climate change as well as benefit from
them economically.

28. Education
School attendance is compulsory from ages six to 14 in
Italy. and education is a serious matter. There are many
universities, educational centers, and degrees available in
higher education. Italy's largest institution, the University of
Rome, has an enrollment of 190,000 students. Founded in
1303, the university confers many degrees in international
relations and communications. Due to an extraordinary wealth
of art, Rome is a major center for studies in creative dance,
dramatic arts, music, and art restoration.

30. The most important educational institutions
in Rome:
1- Sapienza University of Rome.
2- University of Rome "Tor Vergata.
3- University of Roma Three.
4- University of Nicholas.
5- Italian Academy.
All of the above makes Italy's capital Rome at the forefront
of European Union countries in the quality of educational
institutions.
