The Sao Paulo Integrated Urban Transport Project (Barra Funda-Roosevelt Link) aims i) to finance infrastructure and equipment which are critical to the physical integration between the two existing rail suburban systems and between them and the Sao Paulo subway system; ii) to improve the level-of-service provided by CPTM (Sao Paulo Metropolitan Train Company) by enhancing private sector participation in its management and operations; and iii) to contribute towards the reduction of noise and pollution from transport sources. The project has three components. a) The infrastructure and equipment investment component will support the construction of the rail connection between the two CPTM suburban train systems. b) The air quality component will support the construction of a vehicle emission and noise laboratory along with hardware and software, in order to develop the capacity for air quality modeling and emissions investigation within the Environmental Technology Company (CETESB). c) The institutional and policy development component will assist in carrying out the concession of CPTM, establishing a Regional Transport Coordination Commission for the SPMR (Sao Paulo Metropolitan Region), and preparing an integrated transport, land use, and air-quality management strategy for the SPMR.
