SUN Novara

Machine-translated from the Italian article

S.U.N. (acronym for Servizi Urbani Novaresi, Novara Urban Services) is a joint-stock company holding the concession for local public transport in the city of Novara and the neighbouring municipalities of Trecate, Galliate, Romentino, Cerano, Cameri, Sozzago and San Pietro Mosezzo. It was founded on 31 March 1950 on the initiative of some Genoese entrepreneurs. In the following months, the foresight of the Municipal Administration led to the municipality of Novara taking a stake in the company, and on 29 October 1950 the city service began with the first public transport line connecting the Bicocca hamlet with the then-outlying village of Veveri, passing through the city centre.
