Monaco's government has developed mobility and quality travel solutions that respect the environment. The shuttle boat powered by solar electricity, for example, is far more than a simple gimmick for tourists: it is integrated into the transport network operated by Monaco's bus Company (Compagnie des Autobus de Monaco). This is one concrete example of an ecological means of transport that reflects government policy.
