According to IBGE, Brazil has 1 car for every 3.83 inhabitants, with higher ratios in state capitals. Thus, urban mobility management faces more complex challenges. Therefore, the initiative adopted in Espírito Santo highlights the effort to overcome these obstacles. See the details of this integration, which will simplify the daily lives of many passengers, below.

Temporal integration is an additional feature to the existing integrated system on Transcol. Thus, it allows users to switch buses without paying a new fare, even outside an integration terminal.

This convenience, however, is made possible by electronic ticketing technology, which eliminates the need for a physical terminal to integrate different lines. Therefore, when passing through the turnstile of the next bus within a certain interval (approximately 1h/1h30, depending on the region), passengers will not have to pay a new fare.
Discover the lines that will be integrated
In addition, several lines and connections will be available to take advantage of temporal integration on Transcol. For example, on the Alzira Ramos – Terminal Itaparica route in Cariacica, the connections include buses 592, 733, and 719.
