Motorist King In Brasilia As New Capital Transforms Traffic
Brasilia, eight years old, envisions a motorist paradise with no traffic lights and unlimited free parking. The city hosts about 120,000 residents, 2,000 taxis, and a main artery with no speed limit. Traffic lights are eliminated via overpasses and tunnels, producing few pedestrians and many speed related fatalities. Government offices concentrate in self contained super-blocks, reducing travel needs. President Costa e Silva promotes relocation of ministries and diplomats to Brasilia, hoping to shift national activity inland.
