Abstract

The relationship between urban governance and transportation systems has become increasingly relevant as cities worldwide grapple with the challenges of rapid urbanisation and the demand for efficient and sustainable transportation. This paper investigates the influence of urban governance on urban transportation in Brazilian cities, where urbanisation and transportation issues are particularly acute. By examining the governance structures, policies, and decision-making processes in the context of transportation planning and management, this study seeks to provide insights into the key factors that shape transportation outcomes and contribute to urban sustainability in Brazil. The findings shed light on the strengths and weaknesses of the existing governance framework, identifying potential areas for improvement and policy interventions.
