The borough posses single characteristics making an important motor-railway junction and regional prominence at the sector of trade, both profoundly connected to its social economical education. The belated modernization of transports, in this borough, today reflects in acessibility problems to population, problems at the road infrastructure, low levels of services, overcoat, on its peripherical nucleus and social-spacial segregation of people who lives in, whose mobility is, for these reasons, restricted. The city still posses, a railway line which cleaves the down’town and construct another difficulty fact to the spacial interactions. The solar networks’ model whose function is the physical rating intramodal integration of urban bus in a bail terminal at the down’town, it is pioneer in cities with the carriage as Ourinhos ( 104.000 habitants), we mean, in transition between small and par cities, and conduct preponderantly, displaces to down’town.
