Abstract

Five thematic axes based on sustainable alternatives had guided this project. Moreover, the perspective was to develop a network proposal between the axes, in order to promote a better mode of transportation integration and their elements to improve urban mobility on campus, connecting people, technology, and environment. Additionally, the proposed system would be able to generate 146% of all energy that has been consumed every month by campus I and II of UFG. Overall, the project contemplates important incentives for social activities in the city and contributes to promote a new concept and experience of urban mobility, sustainability, and technology on campus II by changing patterns and behaviors. Therefore, the project’s goal is to seed this new paradigm; thus, it can fructify even more over the city and become an example that could be done in others campuses in order to make the world a better place to live.
