Resumo: The COVID-19 pandemic poses serious challenges for the public bus service. The fall in demand due to social distancing measures, the intensification of hygiene procedures, the acquisition of personal protective equipment, and restrictions on vehicle capacity threaten the financial viability of Brazilian public transportation. The COVID-19 pandemic may be characterized as a force majeure event, giving rise to an economic-financial balancing of public bus service contracts. However, this solution must be built by the public administration and transport companies to guarantee the interests and needs of both parties. Therefore, this article offers strategies to continue operating the service during the pandemic and to achieve economic and financial equilibrium protecting the public interest. Overcoming the uncertainties and consequences caused by the pandemic requires relationships of trust and mutual support between the private sector (operators) and government.

La caída de la demanda en función de las medidas de aislamiento social, la intensificación de los procedimientos de higiene, la adquisición del equipo de protección para los trabajadores y las restricciones en cuanto al número de pasajeros por vehículo amenazan la viabilidad económica-financiera del transporte colectivo brasileño. La pandemia de COVID-19 se puede caracterizar como acontecimiento de fuerza mayor que propicie el reequilibrio económico-financiero de contratos de concesión de transporte público por autobús. Sin embargo, esta solución debe buscarse en forma conjunta, por el gobierno y las empresas de transporte, para garantizar los intereses y las necesidades de ambas partes. Este artículo sugiere acciones estratégicas para que el transporte colectivo continúe funcionando durante la pandemia y los acuerdos de reequilibrio económico-financiero se alineen con el interés público. La superación de las incertidumbres y consecuencias de la pandemia requiere la creación de relaciones de confianza y apoyo mutuo entre la iniciativa privada (operadores) y los gobiernos.A pandemia da COVID-19 impõe sérios desafios ao setor de transporte público por ônibus. A queda da demanda em razão do isolamento social, a intensificação dos procedimentos de higienização, a aquisição de equipamentos de proteção individual e as restrições de lotação dos veículos ameaçam a viabilidade econômico-financeira do transporte coletivo brasileiro. A pandemia da COVID-19 pode ser caracterizada como um evento de força maior, ensejando reequilíbrio econômico-financeiro dos contratos de concessão de transporte público por ônibus. Entretanto, esta solução precisa ser buscada conjuntamente, pelo poder público e pelas empresas de transporte urbano, para garantir os interesses e as necessidades de ambas as partes. Este artigo sugere ações estratégicas para que o transporte coletivo continue operando durante a pandemia e os acordos de reequilíbrio econômico-financeiro estejam alinhados com o interesse público.
