SEMTUR ("Sociedad del Estado Municipal para el Transporte Urbano de Rosario", "Rosario Municipal State Company for Urban Transport") is a
government-owned corporation based inRosario , province of Santa Fe,Argentina . It is managed by the municipality of Rosario and runs a number of urbanbus lines, including atrolleybus . [ [http://www.rosario.gov.ar/sitio/servicios/transporte/semtur.jsp Semtur] at the official website of the Municipality of Rosario.]SEMTUR was created in 2002, after a private company which ran five bus lines got its authorization revoked due to defficient service. Though concessions for some of the lines were acquired by other companies, the other bids were left deserted. SEMTUR took over these and started renewing their fleet. This also had the effect of raising the standards for the competition.
As of 2007 , the company manages seven regular bus lines (designed by the numbers 113, 116, 120, 121, 122, 123, and 133), an intra-district line ("Enlace Noroeste"), a special summer-season line to serve the northern coast and beaches of the city ("Línea de la Costa"), and a trolleybus (Line K). [ [http://www.semtur.com.ar/ SEMTUR] (official website).] SEMTUR's buses employ a light gray and orange horizontal colour pattern.References
