In the cities, the transportation importance for the economic development and social equity is fundamental, however, it also generates environment impacts. From this point, the development of a more sustainable perspective for urban mobility has been required (Costa, 2003). This study was carried out at the Comércio street, the main link between UNIJUÍ and the center of Ijuí/RS, and it is based on a reflexive critical analysis of the urban mobility, by estimating the flow of vehicles on the road at the entry and exit time of students at the university. This study includes one-hour readings composed by 15-minute intervals, as recommended by the HCM 2000 methodology, with the critical value being the maximum flow between the four readings in the one hour. Based on this information, it is sought to determine if the route satisfy the service level efficiently, pondering the possible need for adaptations and seeking solutions to improve the region transportation flow.
