Assessment system of cities that are reference in transport and sustainable urban mobility

Abstract

Several externalities resulting from an inadequate model of urban transport planning directly affect the environmental and living quality of the population. In this sense, the purpose of this study is to analyze cities of reference in sustainable urban mobility, evaluating them through indicators determined through city assessment systems: Mercer, Copenhagenize, Walk Score, UITP Index and European Green Capital. The best ranked cities were selected to validate indicators related to transportation infrastructure and management and urban mobility. The results demonstrated the successful practices these reference cities have adopted to improve urban mobility, urban environmental quality and the quality of life of the population, serving as an urban planning guide for Brazilian cities.
