Transport modes are known worldwide because they represent a great challenge in the searchfor sustainability, where one of these issues refers to the constant problems of congestion that cause the increase of atmospheric emissions, harmful to the environment and to health. Thus, some cities stand out for proposing innovative solutions, being the bicycle lanes one of the already consolidated bets as a sustainable modal, seen in examples like Amsterdam, Copenhagen and Stockholm. Therefore, urban planning is an essential management tool for cities to develop their pursuit of sustainability, making possible the updating and implementation of master plans, mobility plans and cycling plans, which are emphasized due to their impact potential. In this way, the objective was to evaluate the impact on sustainability through the implantation of the bike path, conducting studies, diagnosis and analysis in the city of Passo Fundo - Rio Grande do Sul. In order to facilitate the stages of the study, was carried out a data collection with the application of the geographic information system and presented together with a set of indicators, allowing the creation of a methodology that becomes a tool for public and private managers to apply in their areas of actions. Through the geoprocessed information system in the ArcGIS software, the creation of future and current scenarios is performed, which allows the multitemporal analysis of the variations proposed by the plans and quantifying the impacts of these actions on sustainability. In this study, the impacts of the implantation of the bike path were verified in the ambits of environmental, social and economic sustainability, demonstrated in the application of the methodology in a medium sized city and obtaining thematic maps as results for the diagnosis and quantification of the indicators to the final evaluation of the impacts on sustainability, highlighting the positive points to the construction of the bike path.
