Mobility in Monaco is shifting up a gear as the Government rolls out a series of targeted measures aimed at improving how people move around the Principality. With pressure mounting from both residents and commuters, the latest updates suggest that Monaco is intent on proving that small states can think big when it comes to sustainable transport.
During the recent Grand Prix, one of the first real-world stress tests of Monaco’s mobility upgrades, the new Salines car park hit 93% occupancy on peak days, with 1,662 vehicles recorded on race day alone. A new online reservation system saw more than 500 daily bookings across the weekend, offering early evidence that digital tools and strategic infrastructure investments are making a meaningful difference.
Rail continues to serve as the backbone of Monaco’s decarbonised transport ambitions. In 2025, the number of daily trains serving the Principality jumped to 124 on weekdays and more than 140 on weekends, a considerable increase from the previous 95. Service frequency and carriage capacity have both been boosted, and plans are underway to add two more trains to the schedule by 2027. The Government is closely coordinating with both national and regional French authorities to keep the system growing in line with demand.
Urban transport is also on the up. The CAM bus network carried over 7.6 million passengers in 2024—a 4% rise on the previous year. Express lines and the ClicBus on-demand service are gaining traction, and contactless payments have surged, with nearly 970,000 validations last year. The transition to electric is also gathering pace: by the end of 2025, every regular bus route in the city will be served by 100% electric vehicles.
Meanwhile, Monaco’s bike-share scheme, MonaBike, is breaking records. In May 2025 alone, riders clocked up 82,048 trips—a 43% leap from May 2024 and a new all-time high that surpasses even the previous peak of July last year. It’s a sign that active mobility is more than just a trend—it’s becoming part of daily life.
Looking ahead, the Government plans to pilot a summer trial of a Limited Traffic Zone (ZTL) aimed at easing congestion while preserving Monaco’s appeal and quality of life. Details of the scheme are still under wraps but will be released in the coming weeks.
Monaco’s approach remains pragmatic but ambitious, blending digital innovation with infrastructure investment. And while complaints about traffic and commuting aren’t vanishing overnight, the Government insists it’s listening—and acting—with purpose and precision.
