Latin America is one of the most urbanized regions in the world today. It is home to more than 649 million people and more than 80% of the population is urban. It is estimated that Latin America’s cities will grow to 711 million in the next decade. The common challenge faced is the speed and scale of modern urbanization and the inability for urban planning to catch up.
This rapid growth stresses the need for traffic infrastructures and public transport systems – expansion of roads, parking real estates, and improvements on road and commuter safety, around cities as these infrastructures and systems try to play catch up as more people continue to move in and around metropolitan areas.
