Mover sem remover: uma abordagem crítica do Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) e sua aplicação no planejamento urbano atual.

Abstract

The research begins by raising a basis for a discussion of the concept of urban planning called Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) and its application to contemporary urban mobility. Two chapters are structured for the composition of the theoretical framework of the research, and subsequent approach and discussion of the TOD. The initial chapter promotes a more qualitative understanding of the development of integrated planning between transport and urbanization, through a historical bias on the role of urban mobility in city production. The next chapter deals with transport planning from a quantitative perspective, where the survey of efficiency parameters in urban mobility guides the discussion about space and time optics. By completing the foundation of the research, a chapter begins to structure the approach necessary for a critical analysis of the TOD concept / method, allowing, from this, the development of the discussion about the TOD, as initially proposed. The research is built in the opening of a new perspective for future questions, discussions, and even new insertions, about a concept worked from the 1990s and recently approached in the Brazilian academy. Since the discussion does not cease with the present investigation because it is a process and not a product.
