SÃO PAULO – Urban Rails
São Paulo's is among the younger metros in the world and it's considered one of the most modern although today's extension does not cover all areas of this populous city. The metro network (Lines 1-3, 49 km) is complemented by a 270 km suburban network operated by CPTM (Lines A-F). Two new subway lines must be concluded in 2006 and the total network will reach 340 km. The metro runs underground through the city centre but on elevated structures or at grade in outer areas. To reduce the cost of new construction the decision was taken to upgrade some suburban lines to metro standard to provide more frequent service. This was already finished along Line E > 6, which serves the eastern neighbourhoods of the city and operates like an express metro parallel to Line 3, and on Line C > 7, although both lines are still operated by CPTM.
