AVALIAÇÃO PÓS-OCUPAÇÃO DA ESTRATÉGIA DOTS EM PORTO ALEGRE

O caminhar em dois contextos socioeconômicos

Abstract

With the worsening of climate change, it has become imperative to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs), demanding the rapid decrease in the use of fossil fuels. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to promote a sustainable urban mobility matrix. The Transit Oriented Development (DOT) strategy provides guidelines for a city guided by this new mobility matrix. The methodology enables the evaluation of developments through scores according to different principles. This study selected two developments to assess their surroundings for the Walking Principle (ITDP, 2017). The study quantified and analyzed the scores of the three objectives outlined for the theme: crossings, visually active and physically permeable facades, and shade and shelter. The evaluation sought to ascertain the treatments given to the walking mode in developments of different socioeconomic natures, aiming to establish a relationship between the population's profile and walkability.
