Cariri Metro (Portuguese: Metrô do Cariri, though it is technically not a metro system; also known as Portuguese: VLT do Cariri) is a 13.9-kilometer (8.6 mi), nine station diesel commuter rail line (sometimes referred to as a light rail (VLT) line) in the Cariri region of southern Ceará state, Brazil. It is operated by Companhia Cearense de Transportes Metropolitanos, which also operates the Fortaleza Metro. It is expected to transport about 5,000 passengers per day. The line went into operation on an experimental basis on 1 December 2009, and went into regular service in 2010.
