Niterói implements new social services and free transit

The city of Niterói is introducing new initiatives to improve infrastructure and service access for local residents. The water utility provider, Águas de Niterói, is launching the Comunidade Integrada program in the Ciclovia community in Piratininga. This initiative aims to provide essential services, including water and sewage connection standardization, registration updates, and access to social tariffs. The program also offers health services such as blood pressure and glucose monitoring, as well as environmental activities.

Additionally, the Niterói City Hall is implementing the municipality’s first zero-fare feeder bus line, AL01. This service will connect the Jardim das Paineiras housing complex in Pendotiba to the central area of the neighborhood. Designed to support low-income families living in the Minha Casa, Minha Vida development, the free transit line aims to increase mobility and access to local commerce and public services.
