Polos geradores de viagens: análise do impacto causado pelos empreendimentos Altezza e New Life no município de Jataí-GO

Abstract

The increase in residential buildings in urban areas, considered as poles for generating trips, has raised concerns on the part of Urban Planning and Transport bodies, since this type of undertaking generates a large number of trips, corroborating negative effects on the urban road network. The legislation of Brazilian cities has paid attention to these developments over the years, requiring studies of traffic impacts in their licensing processes with the intention of minimizing the impacts caused in the surroundings, such as congestion and use of public roads for parking, also collaborating to improve road safety. To shed light on this discussion, we propose to study the impacts of traffic caused by residential buildings Altezza and New Life, located in the city of Jataí-GO, considering travel generator poles, they can cause on traffic. environment. To characterize these effects, vehicle counts were performed at critical points. Then, through an adaptation of the Grando Methodology and the HCM Method, the vehicle demand and operational performance were estimated, that is, the level of service from the intersection points to blocks constituted by physical roundabouts. Finally, compare the results of these access routes, through the delay time (delay) and the total wait for each stretch of the studied network. In this way, it was possible to measure the increase in demand in the road system caused by the project, verifying the need for changes in the infrastructure to improve the displacement of the population.
