As part of the public services, transport is one of those areas where tensions have arisen as the background derived from the significant presence of the religious factor in the public space. Disputes have reached various well known issues by the American and Strasbourg Case Law and, likewise, in Spanish tribunals. In this work, the clustering has been undertaken following two parameters. The first one, those influencing the transport of individuals (generally public, but occasionally including private references). The second, tbose influencing tbe right of religious freedom or freedom of conscience of the citizens, acting either as users or employees of the transport companies - public or private - who manage those services. Before analysing the mentioned casuistry, the notion of the State ideological-religious neutrality must be defined in this particular field as a necessary condition to guarantee an adequate protection of the freedom of religion and belief.
