Viação Verdun is a Brazilian public transport company in the city of Rio de Janeiro. It is a municipal concessionaire, being affiliated with Rio Bus.

The company was founded in 1962 and started with one that passed through the Largo do Verdun, which led to the name of the company. After the standardization imposed by the municipal public power in 2010, it left its original colors and began to adopt the Internorte Consórcio painting.
