Abstract
CARMONA ROJAS, Madisson Yojan. A Reading Public Transport Concession in Mexico City from the Perspective of Urban Order. Soc. Econ. [online]. 2016, n.31, pp.71-94. ISSN 1657-6357.
This article proposes a reading of public transport under concession in Mexico City from the perspective of urban order analysis -a concept developed by Emilio Duhau and Angela Giglia in various studies. To do this, five spatial operators are defined from which the functional structure of the transport under concession will dialogue with regulations and spatial practices of the users of bus routes. Thus, it is possible to have a vision of public transport in Mexico City that recognize the existence of both continuities and ruptures in the structure of this public service, away from the traditional look of chaos. This working approach seeks to contribute to understanding the implementation process of Metrobús transport system (Bus Rapid Transit) operating in the city for ten years ago.
