Políticas públicas de mobilidade urbana em Fortaleza-CE: uma análise do desenho do programa Bicicletar

Abstract

This study addresses public policy focused on sustainable urban mobility in Fortaleza. The objective is to conduct an analysis of the Bicicletar program. The specific goals are to discuss environmental and urban mobility policies in Fortaleza and to describe the program's design, including its implementation, organization, and operation. The methodology employed is a qualitative approach, with exploratory research involving literature review and document analysis. Considering the results, the program's design is operated and executed by both the public and private sectors. It is contextualized as a public policy aimed at sustainable urban mobility in Fortaleza, using bicycles as a non-polluting alternative means of transportation. This policy demonstrates its contribution to reducing emissions of pollutants in the atmosphere, alleviating traffic congestion, promoting bicycle use, and improving the quality of life for the population. The results emphasize the relevance of the Bicicletar program as a significant initiative to promote the accessible and sustainable use of bicycles, aligning with public and environmental policies in the municipal context of Fortaleza.
