Boa Esperança is a future monorail station of São Paulo Metro. It will serve Line 15-Silver, which connects the nearby neighbourhood to the Metro Line 2-Green in Vila Prudente. It will be located at Avenida Ragueb Chohfi, 3002.[2]

The station is part of the 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) expansion plan towards Jacu-Pêssego.[3][4]

Toponymy[edit]

In 2009, when the line project was publicly presented, the station was temporarily named as Jequiriçá, a street located next to the station. After toponymic studies, the station was renamed to Boa Esperança, the nearest neighbourhood of the station.[5]
