Panorama da mobilidade urbana durante a Pandemia da COVID-19 em um empreendimento de habitação de interesse social (HIS)

Abstract

The pandemic caused by Covid-19 brought challenges by modifying the routine of people who in the pandemic scenario changed their habits, lost jobs, faced difficulties in family relationships, work, food and displacement. A world panorama hitherto never thought or expected causing a health crisis that changed the quality and quantity of public transport by bus. Social Interest Housing associated with urban infrastructure and public services directly impacts the well-being of its residents when, in the face of the pandemic, they saw their lives changed when they needed to travel using collective public transport. The present work, of exploratory nature, qualitative and quantitative approach was used as object of study the Jardim de Minas project, located in São Pedro, Juiz de Fora-MG. For a qualitative and quantitative approach, a questionnaire to residents was used in the methodology and as instruments, a bibliographic review addressing housing of social interest and urban mobility. The reality that emerges in the post-pandemic challenges managers and residents of large cities to rethink their mobility models. In view of the results presented, it was suggested the importance of guiding public policies and investments in the outskirts of the city and neighborhoods, making them accessible and improving urban mobility and construction of housing of social interest with flexibility and security for those who need to get around.
