When line 7 makes sense

In midsummer, reaching Murano via lines 4.1/4.2 (the ring around the main island) is often crowded due to the tourist flow at Ferrovia and P.le Roma. Line 7 starts directly at San Marco-San Zaccaria and runs non-stop to Murano (Colonna or Faro). The advantage: noticeably shorter than the line 4 ring and it relieves the main feeder route from the station. If you are staying near St Mark’s Square in summer and planning a Murano day trip, line 7 is the fastest connection.

Timetable and operation

Line 7 runs only in high season (typically May to September), every 30 minutes during the day. First trip in the morning around 9:00, last from Murano around 18:30. Outside the season, lines 4.1/4.2 and 12 take over. Current live data in the table embedded above.
