Happy World Public Transport Day on April 17

Proclaimed by the International Association of Public Transport (UITP), World Public Transport Day on April 17 is being celebrated for the first time this year under the theme “One Day, Millions of Journeys” to highlight the importance of public transport in our lives.

Under the AKIA brand, we have been putting the philosophy behind this global theme into practice in our production processes since our founding, guided by our “Transportation is our Passion” principle.

Today’s cities require a safe, reliable, and seamless transportation ecosystem. In public transportation networks that facilitate the daily mobility of millions of people, a robust infrastructure is no longer an option it is a necessity. With this sense of responsibility, we offer transportation solutions ranging from 8 to 25 meters in length, including diesel, CNG, electric, and trolleybus options.

At the same time, with our R&D-focused approach, we view developing sustainable and innovative solutions to the dynamic challenges of urban transportation as our core mission.

On this occasion, we celebrate World Public Transport Day on April 17 with all our stakeholders including local governments, operators, and our drivers at the Wheel who are the unsung heroes of this massive mobility network.
