- Otranto has very limited local public transport; the official seasonal Salento in Bus network mainly connects coastal resorts rather than short in-town trips.
- From Via Orte (Porto), the historic centre is walkable. I could not verify an official contactless payment policy for local services from the allowed official sources.
