Hi!
Almost finishing
my infos about the subway, but there are still some little details such as
bicycles and surfboards in the subway, bathrooms at subway stations, exclusive
cars for women and other small things. Let’s go!
Bikes and Surfboards
in Subway: Rio is a beach town and Subway has adapted to it. The bording of
bikes and surfboards are liberated on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays in both subway’s
lines 1 and 2. The boarding must always be done in the last car of the
composition. On Subway buses only surfboards are allowed on Saturdays, Sundays
and holidays - they have to be lapped and can not exceed two meters in length. It’s
not necessary to pay anything extra for these services.
Bike Rack: Subway
offers bike racks from Monday to Saturday from 5am to midnight, and Sundays and
holidays from 7am to 11pm in some subway stations: Pavuna, Colégio, Irajá,
Vicente de Carvalho, Inhaúma, Triagem, Estácio, São Francisco Xavier, Catete,
Siqueira Campos, Cantagalo, Glória e General Osório.
Exclusive Car
for Women: the City Law 4.733/06 states that subway should put exclusive cars for
women at the busiest time, from Monday to Friday, from 6am to 9am and from 17h
to 20h. Be aware and respect this determination!
Accessibility:
for more information acess accessibility.
Toilets in Subway Stations: you find toilets in only 11 subway
station, the busiest ones: Cidade Nova, Siqueira Campos, Estácio, Del Castilho,
Central, Pavuna, Acari/Fazenda Botafogo, Cantagalo, Botafogo e General Osório. So please don’t count on the subway
for this! Make sure that, before you take your ride, you go the toilet in the
museum or restaurant!
About the
transfer between lines, do not forget that Saturdays, Sundays and holidays the transfer
between lines 1 and 2 is done only in Estácio Station, as can be seen in the
picture in this site.
And finally,
don’t forget to stay behind the yellow line while waiting for the subway to
arrive. And do not try to enter in the wagon after the bell rings! Let's be
polite and avoid accidents, ok?
Kiss kiss,
tati.
