Abstract
This paper summarizes a preliminary study of some alternatives for construction of Rapid Transit System - RTS. For studies approach it was considered an area in the Vale do Paraiba particularly the São José dos Campos City and Jacareí Town. The final conclusion includes a proposal for implementation on the Urban Passengers Transportation System on this zone.
The proposal is based on the success of “Step by Step” Program with immediate introduction of Guided Buses and/or Guided Trolley buses. With evolution of urban growing the system can be converted to a Light Rail Vehicle System.
