Resumo

Achieving sustainable development in the urban context of cities is a challenge for technicians and managers. The cycle routes appear as an alternative to add to the road system conditions that allow people to carry out their movements in an attractive and efficient way. In this sense, the study aimed to develop a method of implantation of cycling systems in medium-sized cities, based on Environmental Psychology and the physical characteristics of the urban space and its interrelationship. For the study of the behavior and reading of the individual in the urban environment, the legibility and apprehension parameters of the "place" were adopted in addition to the four foundations presented by Environmental Psychology: personal space, territoriality, privacy and density / crowding in its relation with Cycling. As for physical space, a review of the main models available to measure the service level for bicycles was carried out, where mobility variables based on road safety and cyclist comfort were presented. The variables presented were measured through the Hierarchical Analysis, in which the aim was to evaluate the Via Condition Index, which will enable the definition of a more efficient segment in a road network1 to compose the cycle system. The method is composed of the following steps: area delimitation (identification of the pole generating travel and area of influence), characterization of the area of study (survey of the information of the region), identification of the segments with greater potential for trips with bicycles (spatial aspects), evaluation of the condition index of the route, analysis of intervention opportunities and choice of the stretch of implantation. As a validation of the presented method, a case study was carried out in the city of Goiânia. With this, it is intended to help managers and professionals in the implantation of bicycle systems within a behavioral perspective, as an alternative of real and viable mobility that aims at improving the quality of life and sustainability in urban centers, increasing the number of bicycle users.
