Cities in Focus | Curitiba, Brazil

Curitiba, Brazil, is the birthplace of bus rapid transit, the high-capacity urban public transportation system developed under the leadership of former city mayor Jaime Lerner. The ensuing transit-oriented development (TOD) underscored the importance of organizing urban areas around transport corridors and led Curitiba to be hallmarked as the most successful example of TOD.

Thank you so much for not subtitling nor dubbing the video! :)

PS No, I'm not being sarcastic. I really like the fact that I can enjoy the original audio and language without annoying text or overlaped sounds.

@lefunk85 No problem. We're glad to keep the original audio, but if you ever need captions, we provide them in various languages. Just hover over the "CC" icon at the bottom of our videos and select the desired language. Thanks for watching!

@broliveira It is saturated. Not a mess. Indeed, it is extremely organized for the standards of a brazilian city.

We have studied this BRT scheme as part of my MSc in Transport & Planning. I think it's an absolutely fantastic system from what I have read and seen across academic literature, websites and videos such as this one. Brazil should be proud of this, given the fact that we in the UK are incapable of actually setting a (successful) BRT scheme up over here!
