TransMilenio opens in Bogotá

node

Bogotá opened a high-capacity bus rapid transit network on the Curitiba model, at metropolitan scale and with far higher corridor throughput. Its visibility is what carried BRT into planning practice worldwide, and Latin America still accounts for the largest share of global BRT ridership.

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

  21. Evidence
  22. Supports the global BRT figures of about 191 cities, roughly 5,900 kilometres of corridor and on the order of 32 million daily passengers, with Latin America carrying the largest regional share. V55 verification basis: retrieved from platform summaries; the database was not queried directly, and other retrieved sources give somewhat different totals for 2024, which is why the figures are given as approximations.
