Things can´t continue as they are” Before After “With TransMiCable we´ve seen a lot of progress in our • Safety • Neigborhood aesthetics neigborhood” • Community networks • TransMiCable • Park´s use • Street and sidewalks • Garbage handling • Pride in the neigborhood • Illicit drug use • Travel time

Intersectoral work 2 4 We organize meetings with decision makers to facilitate work between different sectors: • Urban development institute • Health ministry "Those meetings with the community seem very valuable to me. • TransMilenio there is where we realize the perception that people have" • Sports and recreation institute • Ciudad Bolívar´s residents • San Cristóbal´s residents “To thank the Universidad de los Andes because it has been a very nice work with these projects, these meetings and the work with The articulation between community the accelerometer” demands and program offerings was achieved

Follow up and ripple effects Ripple effects mapping methodology with community 2 5 leaders 4 We monitor the transformation of residents' perceptions, unintended effects and new challenges following the intervention. These were the most “Before, they used to say: “No, I'm not going to Ciudad Bolivar" but now anyone wants to come to Ciudad Bolivar, even if it's only recurrent themes: to ride the TransMiCable. They will have another way of thinking • TransMilenio´s local service when they come. • Pride in the neighborhood • New challenges "We need a hospital, another police station. There is only one • Safety public service´s office in one of the stations for all the people we • Travel time are here" • Programs in parks
TransMiCable and its urban transformations is an example Conclusions of a potential inclusive, sustainable and healthy intervention • Interventions in public transportation generate benefits that go beyond mobility. • TransMiCable had short-term effects on: • Reduction in travel time • Satisfaction with transportation and physical environment • The levels of physical activity in cable car users are higher than in other modes of transport • Females observed performing moderate or vigorous physical activity increased in the Illimaní park • Reduction in exposure and inhaled dose of PM2.5, eBC, and CO per trip • Increased health-related quality of life in females • Our Voice by the people approach • Elucidates enablers and facilitators of well-being in the community and the importance of the cable car and the urban transformation to reduce stigma of the locality • Facilitates a dialogue with stakeholders • Joint efforts between academia, the community and policy makers have the potential to provide a better understanding of programs and will help to replicate urban interventions aimed at sustainability and equity.
