Rio De Janeiro's Olympic Legacy Questioned

The video discusses the new Line Four metro service in Rio de Janeiro, highlighting its significance as a legacy of the Olympic Games. It took six years to build and cost over 2 billion pounds.

The line is expected to transform lives in areas like Rochinha but has also led to increased property prices, benefiting developers. Environmental promises remain unfulfilled, leaving concerns for the future.
