On this work, it is done an analysis quant-qualitative of the urban environment for pedestrians pointing the accessibility, where were considered aspects such as mobility and users degree of satisfaction, besides the registers of accidence risks. Two methodologies were used, where the first one evaluates basically the sidewalk; and, the second one does a larger analysis of the urban environment. The object of study is an urban area of the city of João Pessoa, more precisely, the maritime edge of the quarters of Manaíra and Tambaú, where the landscape and the use of the soil marked by mixed activities attract tourists and intensify the flux of pedestrians. Tourists and residents of this city were interviewed to know the longings of all users of this urban environment. The results obtained from the two analyses were similar, even though they have different methods and indicators; and the final result of each one is compatible with the reality of the evaluated local. It was verified that the conditions of the environment available for the pedestrians, mostly in the maritime edge, are not satisfactory, where the vacant spaces of circulation can be considered inaccessible for not offering conditions of safe access and with autonomy for all people; existing thus, great necessity of adjustment of sidewalks which were evaluated to reach greater satisfaction of users.
