Mobility is a crucial issue for urban residents since it is a mean to access goods and services that the city offers, therefore, the right to the city. A quantitative methodological approach was employed by estimating three indices: location quotient, Gini coefficient, and an accessibility index. The results show that the BRT has had a marginal impact, in terms of accessibility and the right to the city, for residents living in the city’s periphery.
