Enough of cars 1.0 in Higienópolis!
-
I only take the tube in NY, London and Paris!
-
This is a protest that started with a chat among six friends
-
on twitter where we wanted to know what was really going on in the area
-
why the construcion of Higienópolis tube station was cancelled
-
and when we started to debate the opinions out there
-
we had the idea of promoting this protest and a barbecue
-
with soft drinks, plastic cups, something very popular
-
because someone had said that "different people" take the metro
-
so we are all "different people" then, because we all take the metro
-
we think that it is necessary to have a subway station in this area
-
because the buses that serve Angelica Avenue are always too full
-
there are only a few buses, they take a long time to come
-
and there are a lot of people who work in the area who need the metro
-
so we decided to get together in a peacefull way
-
in this event where there are people who have taken part of protests in 1989, 1983
-
These are serious people who are here to protest and call for the most humble people to be heard
-
in their plea for public transport.
-
"Different people" are people who are not being governed by the current governor of Sao Paulo
-
They have been excluded.
-
Where is the meat? Where is the beer?
-
Ah, it will be more like stale bread mortadella sandwiches, we are waiting for them to arrive.
-
A more developed city needs to have better urban mobility.
-
As you don't have metro, you travel by bike?
-
We travel by bike, but we also want to take the tube too.
-
Because all of the more developed cities have a more human transport system.
-
If there is no metro, make a designated bicycle route.
-
It is an option.
-
I like public transport but I never take the bus or metro, only bike.
-
How come the governor Geraldo Alckmin changed the station's location without consulting the majority?
-
3,500 people can not superimpose themselves to 10 million paulistanos
-
The rich and the poor all have – excuse me let me have some farofa
-
Only missing meat now...
-
Our hunger is democratic!
-
It is the Brazilian knack, we brought chips, Brazilian drinks, very cheap...
-
I have choked!
-
Where is his Guaraná [Brazilian soft drink]?
-
Chandon Champagne is only for those who can afford it, isn't it?
-
A toast to the "different station"
-
Yes, I agree there should be a metro station in Higienópolis
-
It will be good for everyone, it is a busy street and better to have metro than cars
-
I back the metro in Avenida Angelica. Cars should be banned.
-
And I think it is a good idea to stop cars honking
-
Besides I think that cars...
-
But it won't end the traffic!
-
No, but there will be less. If you leave your car at home, I leave my car and I walk to the city centre
-
A metro is a waste of money.
-
Sao Paulo's people's money.
-
Just walk for 600 metres and there is a station over there
-
This is another matter, there are also bus stops
-
booooooooooo
-
You are disrupting the traffic, go manifest yourselves on the pavement
-
Finished?
-
It is closed. Last one.
-
It is already blocked over there.
-
You see, it would be easier if you had taken the metro.
-
Sure thing, but they are right, you need to protest.
-
It is just that they should have closed the road before the protest, no?
-
Everyone agrees, it needs to be peaceful, it needs to be nice
-
it needs to show with a sense of humor that we exist and we want to be heard
-
Because if they use the internet for campaigning,
-
we can use the internet too to protest against their work
-
I think that if facebook is turned into a tool to mobilise
-
we can change this country, the law, I am very optimistic.
-
Me, a local dweller who lives here, I think the metro would be good for the place
-
I'm asking about the protest, not the metro.
-
Do you think this protest is be good for anything?
-
Of course it is, people need to get together to speak out, come on!
-
If we don't fight and say there we need a metro, we won't have it
-
Thank God now there is the Internet, Facebook, Twitter and conscious people
-
We have "different people", now where is the barbecue?
-
Ah, there barbecue is over there, look!
-
They are making it!
-
Over 11 million people and 4.2 million vehicles circulate in Sao Paulo city.
-
313 km of metro and train lines are dedicated to the public transport.
-
This is half the size of NY, Berlin or London networks.
-
all of which cover metropolitan areas smaller than Sao Paulo.
