Abstract

The present paper describes the new urban planning and infrastructure policy for the city of Recife that has been adopted by the new administration. Initially, the current urbanisation and transportation demand pattern are critically appraised. Hereby, the limits of the current zoning system and also of the transportation policy are pointed out. Following this presentation, the values and objectives of the new administration are discussed. Consequently, its new transportation and infrastructure investment strategy are exposed, which foresees an integrated approach between transit and real estate investment. Conclusively, the pilot line is described, and also the modus operandi of the strategy, which includes a participatory decision process. For the covering abstract see ITRD E116619.
