Participação da mobilidade urbana nos objetivos do desenvolvimento sustentável : o caso de Cabo Frio

Abstract

Rapid urbanization, disordered growth, the concentration of people in large cities, technological advances and the need to reduce the emission of polluting gases show how much it is necessary to invest in policies that encourage sustainability and technological development in the transport sector. The influence that urban mobility has on the achievement of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development is notorious since, with each passing year, the scenarios of the urban mobility and transport sector worsens and increasingly distances itself from the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). What is analysed is an increase in air pollution, climate change, the inefficiency of transport systems and the lack of social accessibility to mobility. In short, without infrastructure and transport services in all regions of the world, the goals of most of the SDG may not be fully and sufficiently reached. Associated with this, the world is constantly changing its model of mobility, new technologies and concepts are being modified on a daily basis. Brazilian municipalities are not prepared to follow this extremely accelerated evolution, so it is important to identify how they should prepare themselves and how adequate urban mobility can contribute to the country reaching ODS. Thus, this work aims to identify how urban mobility fits into ODS, analysing the relationship and the common points of both. It also aims to analyse how municipalities can contribute to increasing sustainability and to this end, it identifies the situation of municipalities in relation to current ODS and urban mobility indicators. Furthermore, a case study is carried out in Cabo Frio (RJ) so that municipalities with the same profile can identify the points in common and act to promote mobility and sustainability. The study proved that to promote sustainable urban mobility in Brazil it is necessary that some conditions are met, from infrastructure to regulations. It was also found that, although there are many points in common between urban mobility and the Sustainable Development Goals, few data indicate such relationship. Urban mobility has proved to be a key issue for the achievement of Agenda 2030 and can be considered a cross-cutting issue among all SDG. Proving that improving urban mobility helps achieve the Sustainable Development Goals.
