From the second half of the 20th century onwards, cities began a new process of transformation driven by society and the knowledge economy that has been consolidated with the advent of the post-industrial era. However, the urbanization pattern that characterizes the vast majority of Brazilian cities is still heavily impacted by the transformations that took place in the industrial period, keeping a significant portion of the population in precarious peripheries and without enjoying the benefits of urbanization. In this sense, having as object of study the city of Belo Horizonte and specifically the Lagoinha neighborhood, which has gone through a process of urban and social degradation, the objective is to present a set of guidelines and lines of action for the requalification of the district. The proposals formulated are guided by the restructuring of the urban mobility and public transport system in the capital of Minas Gerais, in addition to the new paradigms of contemporary cities.
