Introduction

SmartMove gives you instant access to connections across the entire South Tyrol transit network — trains, buses, cable cars, and the Bolzano tram — with live departure data, GPS route following, and service alerts. It works fully in your browser with no installation required.

​

What SmartMove covers

SmartMove connects to the official South Tyrol transit authority API (efa.sta.bz.it) and covers all major operators and modes:

• Trains — SAD regional trains and Trenitalia services throughout South Tyrol
• Buses — SASA urban buses (Bolzano/Merano) and SAD regional coaches
• Cable cars — Gondola and aerial tramway connections (Seilbahn)
• Bolzano tram — City tram network within Bolzano

​

Key features

Route search — Find optimal connections across all transit modes. Filter by speed, transfer count, walking distance, and more. Live map — An interactive Leaflet map shows every stop in the network. Tap any stop for real-time departures, delay info, and platform details. Departure board — See live departures for any stop, including delay indicators. Route following — Follow an active journey in real time with walking progress tracking and next-stop notifications. Commuter mode — Save your frequent routes for one-tap access to the next available connection. Service alerts — Live disruption reports, warnings, and informational messages from the transit network. Favorites and sharing — Bookmark stops, connections, and routes. Share any route via a short link.

​

Offline-first design

SmartMove stores all your data locally using your browser’s localStorage. You do not need an account to use the app. Everything — recent stops, saved routes, preferences — is available immediately and works without a network connection to SmartMove servers.

​

Languages

SmartMove fully supports four languages: Stop name lookups from the EFA API adapt to your selected language (German or Italian). Ladin and English fall back to German for transit data.
