Metropolitan Public Transit in the State of São Paulo during the 2014 FIFA WORLD CUP BRAZIL™ Public transit is the best option for fans planning to attend the opening ceremony and any of the six matches of the 2014 FIFA WORLD CUP BRAZIL™ at Arena Corinthians in São Paulo, in particular the metro and train systems, given that the primary access roads to the venue will be closed to vehicle traffic. The São Paulo State metro-rail system is made up of the São Paulo Metropolitan Rail Company (Companhia Paulista de Trens Metropolitanos – CPTM), the São Paulo Metropolitan Company (Companhia do Metropolitano de São Paulo – Metro), and ViaQuatro (which manages the metro’s Line 4). Combined, the three operators oversee a system stretching more than 336 kilometers and serving 22 municipalities (http://www.metro.sp.gov.br/pdf/mapa-da-rede- metro.pdf). For a single fare of R$ 3.00, passengers have access to the CPTM’s 260.8 km rail system and 92 stations and the Metro’s 75.5 km rail system and 65 stations. Every day more than 7.4 million commuters use the public rail transport system. The city’s metropolitan bus system is operated by the Metropolitan Urban Transit Company (Empresa Metropolitana de Transportes Urbanos – EMTU/SP) and serves 107 cities at fares that vary according to commute distances. For the 2014 FIFA WORLD CUP BRAZIL™, the Metro and the CPTM will operate parallel lines to meet passenger demand to Arena Corinthians: the Metro’s Line 3-Red and the CPTM’S Line 11-Coral. Fans with tickets to the venue’s EAST gate should take the CPTM Expresso da Copa, departing platform 4 at the Luz Station (Line 11) toward the Corinthians-Itaquera station, located 900 meters from the stadium. The Expresso da Copa will provide passengers with non-stop service between the two stations in an estimated of 19 minutes. Following matches, the Expresso da Copa will offer return trip services running approximately 23 minutes, with stops at the Tatuapé and Brás stations. The final destination of the Expresso da Copa’s return leg will be platform 3 at the Luz Station. Fans with tickets to the venue’s WEST gate should take the Metro’s Line 3 and get off at the Arthur Alvim Station, located 900 meters from the stadium. Travel times will vary given the 65 stations distributed throughout the system. By way of example, however, the ride will take an estimated 30 minutes from the Sé Station and about 41 minutes from the Barra Funda Station. For the event’s opening game on June 12 and the other matches played in São Paulo, the EMTU/SP will operate an express Airport Bus Service from the Guarulhos International Airport to Arena Corinthians, running every 30 minutes beginning 7 hours prior to match time 4 hours after the final whistle. Express buses will be air-conditioned and have reclining upholstered seats. The ride will take approximately 30 minutes and cost R$ 36.50, plus a R$ 1.50 boarding fee. A suburban bus line will provide transportation between the Guarulhos International Airport and the Metro’s Tatuapé Station. The travel time will run an estimated 55 minutes at a cost of R$ 4.45. Press Relations News media activities of any nature in São Paulo Metro facilities – access points, stations, platforms, trains – or, further, along lines operated by the EMTU/SP – requires submission of a prior request for authorization by the Company Media Relations Office (see procedures below); News media work encompasses filming, photography, video or audio recordings, broadcasts, and interviews (whether with Company employees, system riders, or third parties); News reporting will not be authorized on boarding/alighting platforms or on trains or buses during morning and evening rush hours on business days (6:00 a.m. – 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.). The objective of this requirement is to prevent disruptions and unforeseen circumstances capable of putting the safety of users and the work of news media professionals at risk. Prior notification is also required to transport film equipment, even if not used in the metro-rail system or on EMTU operated lines.
