[sustran] Histories and Ideas Behind Bogota's BRT

[Andrew Crane-Droesch]

Dear All,

I've been following the Sustran listserv for quite some time now, but this is my first posting.  Apologies if this question has been covered before.  

Regarding Bogotá's widely hailed BRT system, who were the major designers of the system, and whose ideas did it rely upon?  Was Curitiba's experience and expertise heavily relied upon?  Did it involve international consultants or consulting firms?  Or was it more of a homegrown affair?  Who were the designers, and are they still active?  Any relevant links to history of the system would be quite welcome.  

Many Thanks,

Andrew Crane-Droesch
