Task IV -Read the article and tick () A, B, or C.

The best public transport system in the world.

Curitiba in Brazil is no ordinary city; it has the best public transport system in the world. The mayor,
Jaime Lerner, along with the council, began developing the world-famous system in 1971.

Mr Lerner had grown up in Curitiba and knew that the street was an important part of city life for the
residents. He made many of the streets into pedestrian areas, with no access for cars. The council
put in flowers, lights, and kiosks where people could sell food and other products. To encourage
shoppers to use the new areas, the mayor gave away free paper so that local children could paint
pictures in the street. Cyclists also benefit from 150km of cycle lanes, which follow old river valleys
and railway tracks around the city.

Mr Lerner realized that to increase the development and growth of the city in the future, the public
transport system also had to improve. Buses were chosen as the main transport because it was the
cheapest. Curitiba’s transport system now consists of over 300 routes that use around 1,900 buses
to carry approximately 1.9 million passengers every day. Approximately 60km of the roads are for
buses only, so traffic jams are unusual. Bus travel is faster and more convenient than using private
cars. The city now uses 30% less fuel than other large cities in Brazil and people spend only about
10% of their yearly salaries on transport costs.

Some of the buses are able to carry 170–270 passengers. School buses are yellow, and buses for
disabled people are blue. They are designed with three doors – two exits and one entrance – so
that people can get on and off quickly. Bus stations provide free maps and facilities to help parents
with young children and people carrying heavy bags to board the buses easily. Passengers buy a
ticket at the office in advance and then wait for their bus, like in an underground station.
 Because of the success of Curitiba’s public transport system, Jaime Lerner now offers advice to city
councils around the world on how they can solve their cities’ transport problems.

Example: Curitiba has one of the best public transport systems in the world.
A True      B False    C Doesn’t say

4 Other large Brazilian cities are planning to cut the amount of fuel they use.
A True      B False      C Doesn’t say     
5 Passengers buy their tickets as they get on the buses.
