Coppe/UFRJ researchers will present, on June 1st, the advances of the PRISMA-RJ Project — Integration, Sustainability and Development in Mobility in Rio de Janeiro Project —, an initiative that brings together technical studies aimed at the future implementation of Metro Line 3. The project foresees the connection between Niterói, São Gonçalo and Itaboraí, integrated with the city of Rio de Janeiro and other metropolitan transport systems.
The event will be attended by municipal, state and federal authorities and will be held from 9:30 a.m., at the Windsor Florida Hotel (1st floor), located at Rua Ferreira Viana, 81, Flamengo, Rio de Janeiro. The presentation marks one year since the official launch of the initiative, which took place in June 2025, in the Coppe auditorium. Those interested in participating can register using this form.
Coordinated by Professor Rômulo Orrico, from Coppe’s Transport Engineering Program, the project seeks to contribute to sustainable mobility, metropolitan integration and the reduction of territorial inequalities, linking transportation infrastructure and urban development.
The project is developed in two laboratories at Coppe/UFRJ: the Network of Studies in Transport Engineering and Socioeconomics (Reset) and the Laboratory of Optimization and Geographic Information Systems (OPTGIS).
