Transmilenio is the most popular way of transport, it has 175 stations and 9 portals, Transmilenio
is compound by buses, furthermore it has “alimentadores” that are in the portals to get people to
home.

Buses are private buses that take people by certain routes where doesn’t exist transmilenio, they
are cheaper than transmilenio however they are slower too.

Taxis are like the other taxis in the world, are yellow cars that are driven by taxi drivers, however
people are dissatisfied with this way of transport because some taxi drivers are very rude and
sometimes they refuse to take people to certain places. Nowadays there is a problem between car
platforms and taxis because people prefer to take an uber than a taxi, in fact government
sanctioned uber at request of taxi drivers.
