A new website<\/a> that provides information on all of Mallorca’s public transport systems has been launched by the Consorci Transports Mallorca. The website<\/a> allows users to create a route planner at any given time that could include local buses, trains and the Palma metro. <\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Getting<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The\u00a0Majorca Transport Consortium (CTM) is a public body attached to the Ministry of Mobility and Town and Country Planning, created with the purpose of designing, establishing and maintaining a common system of regular public passenger transport on the island of Majorca. The means of transport grouped within the CTM are principally the train, the tube and bus. The CTM is responsible for the technical and administrative organisation of the regular terrestrial transport and through the global design of the system seeks an improvement in services, optimising existing resources.<\/p>\n

\"Getting<\/a><\/p>\n

What is an IFS<\/h2>\n
\n
\n
\n
An Integrated Fare System (Sistema tarifari integrat) consists of a unique range of tickets that are applied to all collective transport services integrated into the system, so that users can take advantage of a fare structure that allows them to travel on routes operated by different companies using the same physical medium \u2013 the Intermodal Card.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

The IFS contributes towards making collective transport a unique, global and unified system, facilitating intermodality.<\/p>\n

Currently all train and tube routes operated by SFM, all Bus+Train services, the “Mou-te b\u00e9” public cycle systems and some interurban bus routes are incorporated into the IFS. The Consorci de Transports de Mallorca (Majorca Transport Consortium) works with the operating companies to achieve the integration of all public transport services on the island within the shortest time possible.<\/p>\n

The IFS is based on a partition of Majorca into 30 zones, grouped into 5 concentric circles around Palma.<\/p>\n

Transport tickets<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
All the system transport tickets belong to the CTM and are divided into two categories: multi-trip tickets and single tickets.<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
    \n
  • 20-trip ticket (T20).<\/strong> This ticket can be for 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4 zone boundary crossings, and the price will change accordingly. The user has 120 days in which to make 20 trips, counting from the day on which the first validation is made.<\/li>\n
  • 40-trip ticket (T40).<\/strong> This ticket can be for 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4 zone boundary crossings, and the price will change accordingly. The user has 45 days in which to make 40 trips, counting from the day on which the first validation is made<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Intermodal Card<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
    \n
    \n
    \n
    \n
    \n

    The Intermodal Card allows for a T20 or T40 multi-trip ticket to be loaded (Perfils de targeta intermodal) so that the user can make the number of trips purchased within the predefined period of time.<\/p>\n

    Being plastic and of standard bank card size, the Intermodal Card is easy to carry around as it is light and takes up very little space. Furthermore, it incorporates an electronic chip where a series of data is stored:<\/p>\n
