Abstract

From enactment of Law of the Urban Mobility National Policy in 2012, the urban mobility management in Brazil started to face new challenges regarding its planning of short, medium and long-term. Among them it is the integration of the different transport modes of the cities: public, private and non-motorized (article 24 of the Law No. 12.587/2012). Aiming to potentiate the use of non-motorized transports in Vale do Paraíba and Litoral Norte, we sought to identify and analyze the critical points of the insertion of the non-motorized transports in the urban planning of cities of the Metropolitan Region of the Vale do Paraíba and Litoral Norte (RMVPLN). For this, we interview the responsible people by non-motorized transports of 11 cities of the RMVPLN using in the interview script and a questionnaire with closed questions. Based on answers, we assessed how the cities address the non-motorized transports in their management and planning. After this analysis, through the model Fuzzy Goal Programming and Data Envelopment Analysis was possible to assess the relative efficiency of the non-motorized transport management of the cities studied. The results of this work indicated the lack of a systemic and integral analysis of the measures and/or initiatives that make easier the use of the non-motorized transports in the Metropolitan Region studied. We also can highlight which are the main determinants that influence the use of the non-motorized transports in the region studied and cities that have higher relative efficiency in management of the same.
