This paper characterizes the public transport system in the city of Marília - SP, with an analysis of its service's quality, and presents an intervention proposal, with the implementation of a Bus Rapid Transit - BRT system in an area where a currently disabled railroad, that crosses the city, is located. The public transport in the city is operated by two companies, which operate in different regions and are represented by an association. A technical visit occurred at one of the concessionaires, and their organization and procedures were observed. The service's quality analysis was made based on technical literature and considered the main indicators of transport quality studied by Ferraz and Torres (2004): accessibility, attendance frequency, time of travel, reliability, safety, bus characteristics, bus stops, information system, connectivity and road conditions. Strengths of service’s quality are accessibility throughout the city, the information system and the universally accessible fleet. The existence of the Terminal is also a strength of the system. The main public transport routes were analyzed and the need for prioritization in the proposed corridor was determined according to the number of buses passing through the area, which was also evaluated based on its characteristics and physical capacity to receive the implementation of a busway. Currently, the corridor has the potential to carry around 35,140 passengers daily.
