%X The expansion of cities, together with the advance of technological resources, has motivated the study of improvements for metropolitan dynamics. Among these improvements are those aiming to facilitate and to speed up the populations routine activities. This work proposes and compares two methods to optimize the location of new pick-up and drop-off points in order to avoid long walks to get to a bus stop. Real datasets of the road network and bus stops in the city of Belo Horizonte were used. Results indicate the effort required by the citys transit system to provide transit pick-up and drop-off points in a reasonable quantity and location, in order to improve the quality of the service rendered to the population.
