Intervenções táticas cicloviáriasa: utilização da bicicleta como modal de transporte na cidade de João Pessoa

Abstract

In Brazil, one of the main elements that influence the structure of cities is the mobility model focused on individual motorized transportation. As a form of clash with contemporary urban paradigms, creative urbanpractices that come from popular initiatives (bottom-up) to tackle everyday problems are a growing world trend,and have great potential for transforming public spaces. The main objective of this work was to propose theuse of tactical urbanism as a participatory tool in bicycle planning. The conception of the methodology wasbased on the analysis of the João Pessoa Cycle Plan through a collaborative methodological process, whichsupported the choice and application of the interventions. The research revealed that the insertion of tacticalurbanism as a formal tool in urban planning can promote a new look at planning strategies and, consequently,foster a truly participatory process in the production of urban space.
