Land Use Regulation Policies; Sustainable Mobility; Real Estate Values; Sustainable Urban Development.

Urban development, characterized by challenges such as congestion, high building densities, and pollution, demands the implementation of sustainable principles. Integrating transportation infrastructure and urban development, focusing on sustainable mobility, becomes essential (CERVERO, 2013). In Recife, the Law of the Twelve Neighborhoods aimed to control verticalization and congestion, indirectly impacting mobility (LACERDA, 2018). Two decades later, examining its effects on density and benefits for sustainable mobility is relevant. This thesis aims to analyze the impact of land-use regulation policies on mobility and real estate values, developing a methodology to measure the importance attributed by society to sustainable mobility. The methodology involves generating mobility variables through geoprocessing, collecting relevant literature variables, exploratory analysis with graphs and maps, followed by bivariate analysis and regression modeling, initially with traditional variables and then with the inclusion of sustainable mobility variables. The results indicated that the regulatory policy positively impacted land use diversity, but not uniformly. There were isolated increases in the preference for public transportation; however, the policy did not reduce motorized trips nor significantly boost active transportation. The regression model captured some mobility variables as significant in explaining price variation, although it yielded unexpected results, such as devaluation near bus stops. In summary, the Twelve Neighborhoods policy had limitations in achieving its goals efficiently and uniformly but induced changes in mobility and land use. Finally, this thesis innovates by incorporating sustainable mobility variables generated by GIS, despite limitations in generalization and specificity of certain variables. It is recommended that the geographical scope be broadened and more variables included to enhance the model in future studies. This thesis fills gaps by addressing the lack of tools for land-use regulation policies and their influence on sustainable mobility and real estate values.
