Mobilidade urbana em Marabá-PA: estudo das rotas de ônibus do transporte coletivo urbano no núcleo Cidade Nova

Abstract

Urban mobility, as it is observed today in Brazil, is the result of numerous public policies that over the decades have directed the population to use road transport, especially private vehicles, causing an exorbitant increase in the vehicle fleet over the decades. country, aggravating the mobility problems in large and medium-sized cities. For this reason urban mobility laws at national and municipal levels were created. In Marabá, among other things, the law outlined guidelines for organizing public transport, which is currently outdated and poorly organized, with few vehicles and routes, resulting in lack of coverage in areas of occupation that emerged mainly in the second half of the 21st century, especially in the Cidade Nova core, where the population of large neighborhoods such as Bom Planalto are off the public transport map, and with reduced social right to access and move around the city. Seeking to solve this problem in some areas of the nucleus, a questionnaire was carried out with the population of these places and from it, the creation of two more bus routes in the nucleus was proposed as a solution, aiming at reducing the areas without public transport coverage. it is expected that this work will have a positive impact on the decision-making of the municipal public power so that there are improvements in public transport in the Cidade Nova nucleus and, consequently, in urban mobility.
