An electric tramway operated in Perugia from 1901 until 1940. It was decommissioned in favour of buses, and since 1943 trolley buses – the latter were in service until 1975.

Two elevators were established since 1971:
* Mercato Coperto (Parking) – Terrazza Mercato Coperto
* Galleria Kennedy – Mercato Coperto (Pincetto)

This was followed by public escalators:
* Rocca Paolina: Piazza Partigiani – Piazza Italia (1983)
* Cupa-Pellini: Piazzale della Cupa – Via dei Priori (1989)
* Piazzale Europa – Piazzale Bellucci (1993)
* Piazzale Bellucci – Corso Cavour (1993)
* Minimetrò: Pincetto – Piazza Matteotti (2008)

Since 1971 Perugia has taken several measures against car traffic, when the first traffic restriction zone was implemented. These zones were expanded over time and at certain hours of the day driving is forbidden in the city centre. Large parking lots are provided in the lower town, from where the city can be reached via public transport.

Since 2008, an [[automated people mover]] called [[Minimetrò]] has also been in operation. It has seven stations, with one terminal at a large parking lot, and the other in the city centre.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.urbanrail.net/eu/per/perugia.htm |title=Perugia MiniMetro on |publisher=Urbanrail.net |date=2008-01-29 |access-date=2010-04-20 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100409022959/http://www.urbanrail.net/eu/per/perugia.htm |archive-date=2010-04-09 }}</ref>

[[File:Stazione-perugia.jpg|thumb|The main [[railway station]] of Perugia: [[Perugia railway station|Perugia Fontivegge]]]]
[[Perugia railway station]], also known as Perugia Fontivegge, was opened in 1866. It forms part of the [[Foligno–Terontola railway]], which also links [[Firenze Santa Maria Novella railway station|Florence]] with [[Roma Termini railway station|Rome]].  The station is situated at Piazza [[Vittorio Veneto]], in the heavily populated district of Fontivegge, about {{convert|3|km}} southwest of the city centre.

[[Perugia San Francesco d'Assisi – Umbria International Airport]] is located {{convert|12|km}} outside the city.

From the bus station there has been a daily connection of [[ITA Airways]] from 1 December 2022, by bus, to and from [[Rome Fiumicino Airport]], allowing a connection with the airline's hub.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.ita-airways.com/it_it/offerte/itabus-booking.html |title=ITA Airways con Itabus: Colleghiamo Perugia e Pescara al resto del mondo |access-date=2022-11-01 |archive-date=2022-11-01 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221101194606/https://www.ita-airways.com/it_it/offerte/itabus-booking.html |url-status=dead }}</ref>
