-   [EMT Bus]({{< relref "bus/emt-madrid.md" >}}) — urban buses within the city
-   Cercanías — suburban rail run by Renfe
-   Interurbano — regional buses to the wider Community of Madrid


## Ticketing {#ticketing}

A single [tarjeta transporte](https://www.crtm.es) (transport card) works across all modes.
The Multi card covers zones A–C and is topped up at any metro station.
