Intervenções espaciais e mobilidade urbana de rodovias em regiões metropolitanas

Abstract

The highways inserted in metropolitan areas over time are becoming large “avenues”, transferring their potential as a way of drainage for the urban road design, interconnecting neighborhoods and cities. In this context, the State Highway GO-060 appears as a link between the cities of Goiânia (GO) and Trindade (GO), inserted in the Metropolitan Region of Goiânia (MRG). These cities stand out as attractive poles of travel accentuated by commuting, motivated by work, studies and business. The thesis discussed the articulation between the urbanization process and the influence of the road networks in the conurbation of the West/Mendanha and Trindade 2 Regions, respectively, of the Municipalities of Goiânia and Trindade, with implications for the occupation of land use and urban mobility. In the result of the actions taken in the formation and production of the space by several typologies – travel generator poles (TGPs) in the space cut, we tried to explain the reflexes in the traffic flow, in public passenger transport and in the mobility index. Data were collected in several public and private entities to analyze the historical evolution of trends and prospective scenarios and to the perception and possibilities of mobility, becoming a great challenge for the management and adoption of public policies. Thus, the objective of this work was to analyze and understand, from a geographic perspective, the impacts of the spatial occupation by different typologies - TGPs, on the margins of a highway with the mobility issues, in the sense of avoiding distortions and conflicts in the use relation of land versus generation of travels. Initially, in the introduction, a brief report was made on the subject of the research, hypothesis, objectives, methodology and the difficulties encountered. The first chapter presented a discussion about consensus or conflict between the urban/metropolitan space and the road space. The second chapter analyzed the complexity of the GO-060 Highway in a historical incursion, as a route of urban/rural integration between the cities of Goiânia and Trindade, characterized by the influence of several TGPs. The third chapter dealt with the conceptual framework that addresses the issues of urban mobility with its developments in urban/rural occupations in service networks and analyzed the results of the composition, generation and distribution of modes of transport in traffic zones. In the fourth and fifth chapters, the structure of the methodological aspects and the application of the method in case study were presented, addressing the structure of the space-time analysis and networks around the GO-060 Highway and the structure of the analysis of the impacts of the occupation, delimited in the areas of study of the space cuts of the Western/Mendanha and Trindade 2 Regions of the MRG. Based on the analysis of the results of the data in chapters 3 and 5, the sixth and final chapter addressed the final considerations in the current perception and in the prospective scenarios, resulting from modal-spatial integration in the context of urban mobility, making possible the proposal of guidelines and actions in the areas of urban planning and transport that may result in the balance and harmony of mobility for these regions.
