Only in 1953 this small company was transformed into the current limited liability company, called "Autolinee N. Gambacorta e soci" srl, with the entry of other partners into the shareholding structure. Until 1977 the company managed to make a dozen connections along the Ionian belt and to Taranto, an important iron and steel center.
