History

Project in the beginning of the 1980s, its construction only began in 1986, being paralyzed for many times. Only on 30 July 2010, 24 years later, the corridor was opened, under suspects of overpricing. Besides the line was planned to receive trolleybuses, it only operated with hybrid and diesel buses. Some constructions, such as Jardim Miriam Bus Terminal,^[5] never began.^[6][7]
