Quite simple in Tucumán (Argentina). There are just 14 bus routes belonging to the city of San Miguel de Tucumán, plus other 20 or so, overviewed by the provincial government for the metropolitan area (Gran Tucumán). All the routes are operated by private companies.
No water transport, no rail (despite promesses), no elevators, etc. Instead, full of taxis.

In Warsaw there are just:
tram lines about 29
bus lines: i don't remember maybe 190
night bus lines:40
subway: 1 line in use , the second is about to build


railways:
2 lines of Fast Urban Trans (SKM) and next 3 are planned:)
13 commuters lines
1 old WKD line (one line about 30km lenght from Warsaw to Pruszkow)


intercity buses which go to other cities of Warsaw's aglomeration

Budapest:
- 11 lines of regular railroad running out of the city with hourly / half-hourly s-bahn (200kms inside city proper)
- 3(+1 construction, +1 proposed) subway lines
- 4 suburban light rail lines (3 of them would be incorporated into Metro5 and the 4th could potentially be incorporated into Metro2)
- about 150 kms of tramlines
- lots of electric/trolley buses
- lots of buses
- couple of ferries on the danube, almost entirely for tourists
- plus the usual: taxi, bikes, cars, walking

the average distance between public transportation stops/stations is about 300 metres, modal-split is about 60%

yoop gramercy walking is the best kinde of urban transport:righton:

In Great Lisbon (Portugal) we have:

4 metro lines (one more is planned);
3 light metro lines;
1 elevated metro line;

yoop gramercy walking is the best kinde of urban transport:righton:

i quite enjoy it, walking over a bridge thats over a century old, then taking the tram then walking again with the most beautiful parlament building in sight

or running on the green island in the middle of the river, walking distance from everywhere

We have a light-rail system with 14 lines, and 125Km lenght

.....and 1 lift;??? Beto what are you talking about?:shifty:

Well, it's really a lift (Santa Justa lift), a big lift, connecting 2 different parts of Lisbon old zone. it's located in Baixa historic district.

Wikipedia info:
The Santa Justa Lift was designed by Raul Mesnier de Ponsrad, an engineer born in Porto to french parents, and apprentice of Gustave Eiffel. Construction began in 1900 and was finished in 1902; originally powered by steam, it was converted to electrical operation in 1907.
The iron lift is 45 metres tall and is decorated in neogothic style, with a different pattern on each storey. The top storey is reached by helicoidal staircases and has a terrace that offers views of Lisbon Castle, the Rossio Square and the Baixa neighbourhood. There are two elevator booths. Each booth has a wooden interior and accommodates 24 people.
The lift has become a tourist attraction in Lisbon as, among the urban lifts in Lisbon, Santa Justa is the only vertical one. Others, including Elevador da Glória and Elevador da Lavra, are more like funiculars that help climb the slopes of Lisbon.

Looks very cool. :)

awesome:) but i don't understand the point. This is regular lift,so it works vertical.And how is possible to connect two 2 different parts of Lisbon old zone? I didn't catch it:(

Because Lisbon has hilly districts you can reach not that easily by walk

Even the metro station of Baixa-Chiado got a long series of escalators to climb to Chiado exit, while the lower exit at Baixa is more 'ordinary'

Anyway... there are many cities in the world which use lifts as PT (eg. Genova, Monaco, Salvador de Bahia)
And even cities wich use escalators in that way (eg. Perugia, Barcelona, Napoli)

In Lyon :
10 lines of commuters trains
4 métro lines
4 modern tram lines (more like light rail)
2 funiculars
7 trolleys lines
119 bus lines
19 minibus lines

14 ferry lines ««« you counted Setubal-Troia?.

Just a small update ...


Do you people count long walkings/escalators as "public transport" ??? we have some LONGGGGGGGGGG walks and a lot of steps here ... or as we say the Baixa to Chiado is the 5th Metro Line (the actual station is called Baixa-Chiado but the actual exits are some 300m apart .. and that's perpendicular to the actual station and not at both esxtremes ... and it's all escalators to either side 200/250m of mecanical-steps). :lol:

Since it's difficult to define the exact area, I simply summed figures of Tokyo, Kanagawa, Chiba, and Saitama Prefectures. Figures are just approximate. Intercity airlines/ferries are excluded.

126 railway lines by 38 companies, including:
3 high speed intercity lines.
16 to 20 subway lines, depending on the definition.
7 monorails.
6 people movers.
1 to 3 tram lines, depending on the definition.
(Others are surface/elevated commuter/intercity lines.)

4 funiculars.
5 aerial lifts.

6,797 bus routes including community buses (source) (http://www.geocities.jp/busservicemap/index10.html), operated by 107 companies and 123 municipalities.
343 highway bus routes.

20 water bus routes by 5 companies.
1 car ferry line.
1 helicopter line.
1 rowing ferry.
1 escalator (for fee, that is).

wow helicopter line , let's talk aobut it!!!!! I think is perfect solution for Warsaw's traffic.How many people may travel
by heli? ok sotavento is right -escalators sounds silly here.

For Simferopol (second largest city on Crimean peninsula after Sebastopol-City):

Commuter trains and buses are common project with Czech railways and a regional bus company.

Note 1: The system had been racionalized (less lines, more frequent). For example there were 22 tram lines in early 90's.

Note 2: Could be a bit more extended, but generally it is enough not to die in traffic jams.

No, I'm not sure. I pulled the numbers off the net. Information was hard to come by. I'm sure it's out there, but didn't know where to look beyond the obvious google searches.
