Trolleybuses In Bari
The Bari trolleybus system () formed part of the public transport network of the city of Bari and the province of Bari, in the Regions of Italy, region of Apulia, Italy. Trolleybuses served the city from 1939 to 1987, on a network of several routes. In 1990, less than three years after closure of the last route, it was decided to reopen one route of the former system, route 4 to Carbonara di Bari, but very little further progress was made over the next few years.
