The Tunis Transport Company (Transtu) has launched a new bus line, numbered 13-bar, linking the El Ouardia area to the Farhat Hached station located at Barcelone Square.
This new service was implemented following a field study conducted by the company in response to requests from users residing in El Ouardia, as part of improving transport services and facilitating daily travel.
A 5.8 km one-way trip
The route of the new line extends 5.8 km on the outbound and 6.2 km on the return.
On the outbound, the bus departs from El Ouardia 6, at the site of the former terminus of line 24, then serves the municipality of El Kabaria, Lacagnia, 13 August and Bab Alioua, before arriving at the Farhat Hached station at Barcelone Square.
The return trip follows the same route in reverse order.
Four departures per day
The line will operate four trips daily, distributed between the morning and the late afternoon.
Two departures are scheduled in the morning from the El Ouardia 6 station, at 06:00 and 07:00.
Two additional departures are planned in the afternoon from the Farhat Hached station at Barcelone Square, at 16:30 and 18:30.
A fare set at 500 millimes
The fare for the trip has been set at 500 millimes.
The introduction of this line aims to strengthen the regular transport offering between El Ouardia and central Tunis and to facilitate users’ movements, particularly during peak hours.
