Mexico City’s Metrobus — a so-called bus rapid transit system — received a prestigious award from Harvard on Thursday, and the country has announced plans to expand the system.
Harvard, in awarding Mexico City’s system its Roy Family Award for Environmental Partnerships, said the system has reduced carbon dioxide emissions from traffic by an estimated 60,000 to 80,000 tons a year by removing hundreds of polluting minibuses from the road, encouraging residents to leave their cars at home, and stimulating greater use of sidewalks and bicycles.
