The Italian public transport operator Dolomiti Bus provides services for the Winter Olympic Games in Cortina d’Ampezzo this month and following by integrating 14 additional new Daimler Buses vehicles into its fleet. The event, taking place from February 6 to 22 and the Paralympic Winter Games from March 6 to 15, 2026, is expected to welcome more than 3,500 athletes from over 90 countries.
The newly deployed fleet consists of five Setra S 531 DT double‑decker buses, four Mercedes‑Benz Citaro K Hybrid city buses, and five Mercedes‑Benz Tourismo coaches. All vehicles are equipped with advanced safety and onboard technologies, including driver assistance systems, video monitoring, fire extinguishing devices, passenger counting sensors, ticket validators, and USB charging ports. “Our continuous investments in renewing our fleet are even more significant in a year when the world’s attention is focused on
our mountains,” says Stefano Rossi, CEO of Dolomiti Bus. “With our fleet, we will accompany spectators above all, but also employees and volunteers throughout the entire event.” The partnership between Dolomiti Bus and Daimler Buses is approaching its thirtieth anniversary. Since 2017, Dolomiti Bus has supported the UNESCO Dolomites Foundation by promoting and offering locally CO₂‑free and integrated mobility solutions throughout the Dolomite valleys.
