Abstract
The massive transport systems in Latin America have significantly transformed economic planning, territorial planning, urban design and, in particular, the experiences of the people who use them on a daily basis. This text explores, using ethnographic elements, the case of the TransMilenio in Bogotá, as a non-place and as a crowd. Field notes are used, made during the years 2011, 2012 and 2016, to portray some relevant characteristics of contemporary urban life.
