Currently, urban mobility is a matter of major preoccupation in a city. It concerns about how the displacements of people and cargo take place in the urban mesh, which is considered by multiple authors as an important attribute of it, being directly related with the global environmental crisis, due to the pollution that’s generated by the chosen means of transportation. The intention of the present study is to analyze urban mobility through collective transportation, in the city of São Miguel do Oeste - SC, in order to understand how it happens and then, to be able to perform interventions with solutions that are not only punctual or immediate, but that can be justified in the long term and promote improvements throughout all the system. Public transportation has the purpose to allow a great number of users in a single vehicle, optimizing displacement and reducing a large number of automobiles that circulate through the city. Focusing on the user of collective transportation is important, since it embraces the public as users and as pedestrians, allowing to analyze city's walks based on their view point. For this understanding, a questionnaire of the type survey was elaborated and applied in a sample of a hundred people, all users of the collective transportation of the city, in the months of September and October. Also, a data collection was done, which subsidized the characterization of urban space and collective transportation, as well as an analysis of the road system. Public policies have been an important ally in the requirement of mobility plans for brazilian cities, however, there is no strictness in its application, resulting in disinterest in its effectiveness. This also occurs in the city of São Miguel do Oeste, which missed the deadlines for the implementation of the Mobility Plan, determined in its own Master Plan and in the National Urban Mobility Policy. São Miguel do Oeste’s collective transportation is mainly used by young women, and for studying purposes. Considering a radius of 300 meters from one bus stop to another, it doesn’t attend the urban mesh as a whole. It is necessary to rethink the infrastructure of the bus stops, the number of buses that travel a bus’ route and also, rethink public policies that are able to encourage the use of public transport as a positive alternative to the urban mobility of the municipality. Finally, to think of solutions that allow and stimulate the walkability as a way to promote population’s quality of life and greater urban vitality in the city.
