Curitiba opens the first bus rapid transit corridors

node

Curitiba inaugurated the first twenty kilometres of segregated express bus lanes along its structural axes, carrying on the order of tens of thousands of passengers a day at the outset. It was conceived explicitly as an affordable substitute for a metro, and became the reference design for systems in roughly two hundred cities.

A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.

  17. Evidence
  18. Supports the 1974 opening of the first twenty kilometres, the structural-axis planning model, the diffusion to roughly two hundred cities, and the ridership fall to just over 710,000 daily in 2020 with recovery to about 1.1 million in 2022. V55 verification basis: retrieved from anniversary reporting and policy material rather than from URBS or municipal statistics, which were not opened.
