Procedimento metodológico para avaliação preliminar de novas alternativas de transporte no Brasil: o caso do compartilhamento de carros no Rio de Janeiro

Abstract

This work explores the concepts and tendencies of urban mobility and shared mobility, finding that the transport sector undergoes transformations in technologies and business models, in an accelerated and disruptive pace. There are three main factors guiding these trends: Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), shared economy and vehicles electrification. Given this scenario, new urban mobility alternatives become important transport policy tools, in a scenario in which cities increasingly demand sustainable solutions for the population well-being. With this in mind, this work develops a methodology to help transportation planning and decisionmaking on new urban mobility alternatives, with the use of Geographic Information System (GIS) that guarantees the ease of visualization and agility to the work. In addition, the methodology is applied on the case study of car sharing in the city of Rio de Janeiro, proving to be an effective tool for decision making by previously indicating the places where the new alternative will present the best levels of service.
