Recognizing the use of the bicycle as a lever for more sustainable urban mobility, this research has as general objective to evaluate the cycling mobility of the city of João Pessoa / PB, based on the elaboration and application of the Cycle Mobility Evaluation Index (AMoCiclo), focusing on cycling infrastructure. The methodological procedures adopted correspond to the specific objectives of identifying the existing bicycle structure based on extensive field research and documentary research; to identify the use of the bicycle, in daily transport routes of all the zones of the city, through the method of counting of cyclists; to elaborate the index (AMoCiclo) from a bibliographical revision of other reference methods for the incorporation of indicators of quality of cycling infrastructure; and to carry out the application of this index, using the cycle paths throughout the city of João Pessoa as a case study. The results present a panorama of the João Pessoa cycling mobility, through a mapping and characterization of all the existing cycle axes; as well as an analysis of the density of bicycle people and their physical and behavioral characteristics in the traffic in places with and without cycling infrastructure. In this sense, it is revealed the lack of connectivity of the existing bicycle network and its absence in areas of considerable volume of cyclists. In addition, the elaboration and application of the AMoCiclo index constitutes an important method of measuring the quality of the bicycle structure, generating a diagnosis that allows, in an objective way, to measure the conditions of this bicycle infrastructure, qualifying it on 12 different indicators. The results of the index notes correspond directly to a priority of actions for system improvement. In relation to the observed performance, a situation of lag in several aspects is revealed, especially about the category of signaling. Thus, the indicators developed and used are effective not only exposing the conditions of the cycle structure but also being able to subsidize measures of improvement of the system, as a way to strengthen the active transport by bicycle in the urban mobility planning.
