This text presents a historical review of recent urban mobility policies in Brazil. The focus is on the democratization period to the present day, showing the progress and challenges of the sector. An effort is made to establish a link between popular pressures and new regulatory, administrative and financial structures in order to improve the provision of public transportation services. The text also analyses the successes, failures and incompleteness of solutions designed to meet social expectations. Based on this analysis some contributions to better approach to the subject are suggested.
