On Saturdays, or the days before a holiday (called prefestivi), the 117 bus does not operate from Piazza di Popolo because of the closure of traffic on Via del Corso between 15:00 and 20:00
These two posts on the 117 might describe this in more detail:
Bus 117 to Piazza San Giovanni in Laterano and
Bus 117 to Piazza del Popolo
WOW! These entries are amazing and I hadn't seen them. Thanks for pointing them out. I'm running out of superlatives for you - but your site is stupendous!
Quick question - there's a new (to me) icon on ATAC's site that I'm clueless about. It's the small blue box with with something white and red in it. You can see it in your second link, next to the first 3 bus stops shown. And if you've explained this in the text of your posts I apologize. I just did a quick scan of them, thought BRAVO
RinR and came here to post. (I've bookmarked your entries to study at length later, thanks again!).
