Dedicated lanes separated by a painted line (4)3.37km/3.37km (100%) -> 4Technically not even a painted line, though Ônibus is painted onto the lanes and there are some small lane separators
No dedicated lanes (0)
Busway alignment8/8Source: Google Maps
Tier 1: Two-way median-aligned busway in the central verge of a two-way road (8)3.37km/3.37km (100%) -> 8
Tier 1: Bus-only corridor where there is a fully exclusive right-of-way and no parallel mixed traffic, such as a transit mall or a converted rail corridor (8)
Tier 1: Busway that runs adjacent to an edge condition like a waterfront or park where there are few intersections to cause conflicts (8)
Tier 1: Busway that runs two-way on the side of a one-way street (6)
Tier 2: Busway that is split into two one-way pairs on separate streets, with each bus lane centrally aligned in the roadway (5)
Tier 2: Busway aligned to the outer curb of the central roadway on a street with a central roadway and parallel service road (4)
Tier 2: Busway aligned to the inner curb of the service road on a street with a central roadway and parallel service road. Busway must be physically separated from other traffic on the service road to receive points (4)
Tier 2: Busway that is split into two one-way pairs on separate streets, with each bus lane aligned to the curb (3)

Off-board fare collection0/8Source: Google Streetview
Barrier-controlled (8)
Proof-of-payment (7)
Onboard fare validation - all doors (4)
Intersection treatments7/7
Turns prohibited across the busway (7)7Turns across busway banned at nearly all intersections. ROW is on a river, so minor streets do not interact with busway.
