Resumen

This chapter analyses the case law of the European Court of Human Rights in the field of transport, taking two main parameters into account. The first is that they concern cases that affect the sphere of transport (generally public, but sometimes including references to private transport). Second, that they affect the exercise of citizens’ right to freedom of religion or conscience, either as users or as employees of the transport companies that manage these services. In any case, the tensions over the religious factor that arise in the field of transport and the legislative and jurisprudential solutions that are analysed show, once again, the challenge that public authorities face in managing religious pluralism in the public space of contemporary societies.
