ÂżWhat happened to all the buses?

The shift in mobility In 2002, the entire Bogotรก bus system changed. Before there were many buses from different companies but it was very difficult to put order. If one went from one bus to another had to pay the ticket again, the buses were very old and there was a lot of pollution, among other problems.

Discuss the following questions in a group:
A) What other characteristics did the bus system have before the change in 2002?
B) What was the biggest change you noticed?
C) What things seem easier to you, and what things seem more difficult to you of the current service?

The new transport system In order for Bogota citizens to be able to use the buses easier, the system became one. It’s name, as many already know, is sitp (integrated public transport system). It is important to understand some of the changes to use the sitp easier. In the following pages of the book we will know those changes.
