The small metro in Porto Alegre is the equivalent of the Parisian RER, running rather in the outskirts of the city. However, the airport, the Rodoviária and the mercado publico do have a station. The single line runs from Porto Alegre to São Leopoldo, via Canoas, Esteio and Sapucaia do Sul. It is 44 kilometres long, with a total of 22 stations 2.1 kilometres apart. It is therefore necessary to calculate well where to get off, at the risk of covering a long distance on foot! From the central market you can reach the bus station or the airport by metro.
