Getting Around

Public transportation in Rome is managed mainly by ATAC. Its BIT tickets cost €1.50, have a validity of 100 minutes and include a 1-way metro trip.

To get to Fusolab with public transportation the most convenient way is using Rome's metro C line. Get off at the Alessandrino stop, then walk on Viale Alessandrino, take the third road on the right which is Viale della Bella Villa, walk for 100 meters following the signs for the Centro Commerciale Casilino shopping mall. At Viale della Bella Villa number 94 you will find Fusolab.

From the Termini railway station or from the Anagnina metro stop (which is connected to the Ciampino airport), take the metro A line to San Giovanni and then switch to metro C.

Please be aware that the metro C line will close at around 23:30 on weekdays. See https://romamobilita.it/en/moving-rome/metro-and-railways-lines-and-time-tables

Another fast(er) way to get around is to use the shared scooters and bikes, which are available in several areas of the city.

If you need to take a taxi, try to agree upon a price beforehand or use a mobile app.
