Agios has a well funded and developed public transportation network that it shares with its neighbour, Altena. The public transit network consists of an all electric bus system, a combined subway system that connects both cities together through two underwater tunnels, and one above ground high speed rail line that connects with the rest of the Order Territory and runs all the way to [[Evdilos]] in Icaria. There are three large bridges in Agios, the Long Agios Strait Bridge, Short Agios Strait Bridge, and the King Theodoros II bridge which connect Agios to the South Island and the mainland.

The King Theodoros II bridge is approximately 10km long and runs from the northernmost point of Agios to the northern part of Altena. Construction started in 1997, with the bridge being completed in 2005. The bridge features six road lanes and two rail lines that are used primarily for goods transport and trade between Serria and the Federal Republic of Icaria. The bridge construction is a mix of cable stayed for the majority of the length, and suspension for the longest span in the middle with a length of 1.3km at a height of 200m, allowing large ships to pass underneath.

The Agios Strait bridges are located on the southernmost point of Agios, and the southernmost point of the South Island, and connect the South Island to both Agios and the mainland. Construction started in 1963 and was completed in 1969. The bridges are a viaduct type, with the long bridge being approximately 10km long, and the short bridge being 7km long. Both have 25m of clearance beneath then, which prevents any large vessels from passing underneath. The bridges have four road lanes and two high speed rail lines in the middle of the bridge and are the main way to travel to the South Island from Agios or the mainland.
