[garryl]

The new governor Maria Vidal is working on 6 extra lines to improve the transportation between BsAs to:
Vicente López
San Isidro
San Martín
Tres de Febrero
Morón
La Matanza
and Lanús, Avellaneda

This is a 1.2 billion pesos world bank financed project. 200k people will benefit from it.

I don't understand: is this an extension of the subway system? Is there a timeline?

all nice and well, but where are the real data?

Looks like an extension to the metro bus system

There's also a huge project (RER -Red Expresos Regionales) in the works to interconnect all metropolitan train stations and subways in a hub located under the obelisco.

Sounds a bit pie-in-the-sky, but who knows.

But do they really have to literally lift both the name and the acronym from the Paris system?

Keeping in mind, by the way, that the latter is a rather more huge system than this one - it branches out far beyond the city of Paris to cover all of Île-de-France, the equivalent of GBA there.

For the one going up north, the metrobus is already going further than city limits, it ends in Olivos, V. Lopez. I can't remember the intersection exactly.

Hey! Ben! Have you forgotten that we are the Paris of South America?

It is said they will finish (some of them) by March.

I wish there was some easier way to get to EZE.I know about the minivans from Avenida Belgrano in the Bajo but you have to get there and they are limited. Otherwise,with the exception of the never-ending #8, its $$ but one can't ask for too much. Too bad they can't take that red French train that goes nowhere in Puerto Madero and put it to some use! If I am not mistaken, France wants it back because it was never paid for in full(or possibly at all!!)

The Puerto Madero train hasn't been working for a year or two
