Abstract
Urban mobility characterizes the conditions for moving people and loads through urban space, acting on the well-being and safety of the population. Considering the safety aspect, Vision Zero emerges as a set of techniques that help reduce accidents with deaths or serious injuries. This work presents the application of concepts of safe mobility and Vision Zero in the city of Dourados-MS through an intervention project in a stretch of one of its roads. The elaboration of the project required two main stages: determination of the study section and characterization of the traffic elements of that section. From the implementation of the bike path on Avenue Presidente Vargas, the safety of cyclists will increase. In addition, the correction of signs and the solution of problems related to accessibility when crossing the medians will result in greater safety for people with reduced mobility. Thus, it was found that the parameters of Vision Zero are strong allies to ensure the safety of pedestrians and cyclists and prevent serious accidents from occurring in the city.
