EMBARQ’s support to the cities of Brazil is starting with the set up of the Center for Sustainable Transport of Brazil (CTS-Brazil), a not-for-profit, non-governmental organization based in Porto Alegre.
The mission of CTS-Brazil is to facilitate and implement sustainable transport solutions – taking into account the economic, social, and environmental factors – in order to improve the mobility and quality of life in Brazilian cities.
EMBARQ and CTS-Brazil will be supporting the City of Porto Alegre with their transportation objectives, which include the implementation of a Bus Rapid Transit system (BRT), switch towards cleaner fuels and technology, and promoting the use of non-motorized modes of transport.
