Cities increasingly face problems in urban mobility. Studies on the influence of transport to promote quality of life serve as important tools for decision-making regaring urban planning. In this context, studies to identify the characteristics to design a walkable city are supporting tools in building more sustainable, safer, healtier, more accessible and livable urban environment. This paper aims to present the methodological procedures taken to elaborate the necessary instruments to the future application of the Best Worst Scaling technique, which in the walkablity study allows the determination of the most important characteristics to promote walking as transport. Among the methodological steps presented in this paper are the geospatial distribution methods and neighborhoods characterization in Cachoeira do Sul, a mid-sized city in Brazilian, sample stratification and calculation, variables included in the analysis, data collection, design and application of the walkability surveys
