====Curitiba, Brazil==== One of the earliest and most successful examples of TOD is [[Curitiba]], [[Brazil]].<ref>{{cite web |url = http://www.ippuc.org.br/pensando_a_cidade/index_zoneamento_ingles.htm |title = Citizine Information, Zoning and Land Use in Curitiba (Ingles) |date = January 2006 |access-date = 28 February 2018 }}{{Dead link|date=July 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=no }}</ref> Curitiba was organized into transport corridors very early on in its history. Over the years, it has integrated its zoning laws and transportation planning to place high-density development adjacent to high-capacity transportation systems, particularly its [[Rede Integrada de Transporte|BRT corridors]]. Since the failure of its first rather grandiose city plan due to lack of funding, Curitiba has focused on working with economical forms of infrastructure, so it has arranged unique adaptations, such as bus routes (inexpensive infrastructure) with routing systems, limited access and speeds similar to subway systems. The source of innovation in Curitiba has been a unique form of participatory city planning that emphasizes public education, discussion and agreement.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Cervero|first1=Robert|title=The Transit Metropolis: A Global Inquiry |date=1998 |publisher=Island Press |location=Washington|isbn=9781559635912}}</ref>
