Description:
The Ibes terminal is located in Vila Velha and consists of two boarding platforms and a support building in concrete. The support building has cafeteria, library, box office, toilets, and other uses related to the comfort of users waiting. Also includes a bike rack, with entry and exit control, which encourages the integrated use of different modes of locomotion. The concrete volume also includes open internal gardens that are marked by cuts in the cover, qualifying the space with vegetation contact.
The Ibes terminal connects to the nearest station - Avenue Carlos Lindenberg - through an underground tunnel, which facilitates the movement to connect to different bus lines. Over the tunnel develops a linear square that will requalify the area surrounding the terminal.
