Third episode of the documentary series City SPaces 

The Sumaré metro station, in the western part of the city of São Paulo, is where we talk about public transport, especially in the city where we are located but considerable for many others.

I think it's more than clear that combustion cars are not a solution for the near future when it comes to locomotion, especially within large cities. And when it comes to electric cars, they (most of the time) take up a considerable amount of space anyway. Most major cities in the world today are filled with a huge amount of cars on the streets occupying a very important rule, as cities are also being designed many times for the best locomotion and inclusion of cars in it.

Maybe public transport can become more and more a very smart solution for a fast, safe and not too expensive locomotion. Unfortunately in this specific case, the governance of São Paulo and many times of all Brazil, still lacks a lot of infrastructure for public transport. 

I believe that public transport has to be a model of fast, cheap, sustainable locomotion in cities. And the way they are designed, should consider space in a more intelligent way, where it doesn't take up so much space on the surface, as cars do nowadays.
