Even before the Games, Rio’s population will benefit from an expansion of the metro system. Until 2010 there will be a new station at Cidade Nova, close to the City Hall building, enabling southbound users of line 2 to reach their destination directly without changing trains at Estação Estácio. The Rio 2016 Committee has also designed a high capacity, high frequency transportation system, at a significantly lower cost and capable of fully meeting city needs. Adding high capacity to comfort, the BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) system will establish a bus corridor, running on exclusive and segregated lanes, with boarding and disembarking stations. The system will be integrated to the Metro System at Praça General Osório and will provide a fast and safe connection to the Alvorada terminal.
