"It spreads city to city": The implementation of Guangzhou Bus Rapid Transit

Résumé En

This contribution aims at introducing part of the empirical material collected in China during my mobility in the framework of the MEDIUM project. The analysis of my data, for the purpose of a future article, is still ongoing. I will therefore stick to a brief presentation of the first raw results of my field research. This field land was conducted in Guangzhou, contrary to my initial desire to focus on Zhuhai's sustainable transportation policies. Indeed, I faced difficulties in accessing the field in Zhuhai, which I was able to bypass in Guangzhou. The support of an NGO allowed me to have easier access to interviews, while they were very difficult to negotiate in Zhuhai. It was therefore the constraints encountered on the spot that pushed me to move away from my initial search plan.
