UR-L1079 : Montevideo Urban Transportation Program II

The program¿s general objective is to contribute to the development of a public transportation system that will provide an alternative to individual transportation in the eastern section of the Montevideo Metropolitan Area (MMA), with a view to: (i) improving the living conditions of the population; and (ii) supporting sustainable urban development.
