Abstract

Brazil has several problems related to urban mobility. These issues are most evident in big cities where the territorial extension and the complex activities developed in urban space become transportation planning difficult. Therefore, Brazilian cities face challenges to implement the Brazilian Urban Mobility Policy (BUMP) requirements. Since this enactment, in 2012, several studies have been developed to evaluate the impacts of the mitigations proposed by this law. Among these studies, a proposition of a System Dynamics (SD) model to assess the effects of this policy stands out. This model allows verifying the impact of different BUMP mitigation measures (individually and together). Therefore, this paper aims to obtain and to compare the results of the application of this SD model in two Brazilian megacities: Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. The results show the importance of BUMP implementation to reduce the negative externalities of transport systems and improve their efficiency. However, the effects of this policy are not the same for the two megacities.

巴西大城市:量化巴西城市交通政策影响的模拟

巴西有几个与城市交通有关的问题。这些问题在大城市中表现得最为明显，城市空间的领土扩张和复杂活动给交通规划带来了困难。因此，巴西城市面临着实施巴西城市交通政策(BUMP)要求的挑战。自2012年颁布这项法律以来，开展了若干项研究，以评估该法提出的缓解措施的影响。在这些研究中，一个系统动力学(SD)模型的提议来评估这一政策的影响是突出的。此模型允许验证不同的碰撞缓解措施(单独或一起)的影响。因此，本文旨在获得并比较该SD模型在巴西两个特大城市:里约热内卢和圣保罗的应用结果。结果表明，实施BUMP对于减少运输系统的负外部性和提高其效率具有重要意义。然而，这一政策对两个大城市的影响并不相同。

期刊介绍： Municipal Engineer publishes international peer reviewed research, best practice, case study and project papers reports. The journal proudly enjoys an international readership and actively encourages international Panel members and authors. The journal covers the effect of civil engineering on local community such as technical issues, political interface and community participation, the sustainability agenda, cultural context, and the key dimensions of procurement, management and finance. This also includes public services, utilities, and transport. Research needs to be transferable and of interest to a wide international audience. Please ensure that municipal aspects are considered in all submissions. We are happy to consider research papers/reviews/briefing articles.
