ACTV, Venice's public-transit agency, has published a number of useful documents that you can view on your computer, tablet, or smartphone or print before leaving for Venice.

To save you the hassle of trying to find the maps and timebables on ACTV's confusing Web site, we've provided links to the relevant pages:

Water Bus Service

Click the link above, then scroll down for ACTV internal links to three PDF documents:

A "Map of waterborne routes," which shows vaporetto and other waterbus routes in Venice and the Venetian Lagoon.
A "Lido urban bus services" page, which shows where to catch land and water buses at the Lido's Santa Maria Elisabetta ACTV station.
A "Timetable Water-Buses ACTV," which has timetables for ACTV's numbered waterbus routes in Venice and the Lagoon. (Use this in combination with the map above.) Note: This timetable changes twice a year--usually in April and November--so exact routes and times may be slightly different at the time of your visit if you're planning ahead.

Click the link above to find land buses from the mainland districts of Mestre and Marghera to Venice's Piazzale Roma, for travel within Mestre's urban bus network on the Venetian mainland, and for suburban/exurban bus routes.

ACTV operates trams in Mestre and Marghera, and also a new Line 1 tram between Mestre and Venice's Piazzale Roma. This page is in Italian, but the maps and diagrams don't require translation.
