The reformhas the objective to improve the transport sector so as to make it effective on a long term basis. It consists of four main components that are itsmainstay: an institutional and statutory framework; a financial framework; the total restructuring of public transport; and an increase in human resources. An integrated program is being implemented within that framework,composed of five components: road infrastructures, traffic flow and safety; measures to make trips secure along the railways; supporting the leasing for the renewal of the public transport fleet accompanied by professionalization of the sector; improving the quality of air; and reinforcing the capacities.
