The Geneva Public Transport (French: Transports publics genevois), also known as TPG, is an autonomous public-law institution responsible for most of the public transportation system in the canton of Geneva, Switzerland.

The TPG is the successor organization to the Geneva Electric Tramway Company, or CGTE, which operated trams throughout the canton and parts of neighbouring France from 1900 until 1 January 1977.

The TPG operates trams, trolleybuses and buses for the canton of Geneva and also serves some regions in neighbouring France. Local rail services are provided by the CFF (Swiss Federal Railways) and the SNCF, and passenger ferries across the lake by the Mouettes Genevoises Navigation. The TPG shares a common fare system (Unireso) with these services and some in neighbouring France so that a single ticket can be used for any public transport within its zones and times of validity.
