Abstract

Currently, thousands of people move around the world using urban transport, which is the primary means of transportation between small and large cities. This work aims to analyze public transport in the ergonometric concept. Through analyses and studies in numerous scientific articles in the area, we understand and apply an innovative metric and methodology, thus analyzing the temperature, noise, the number of people inside the public transport, the speed of the means of transportation, and the average time that people wait for the arrival of the vehicle. It is important to note that these data align with the ergonomic comfort of a public transport population. This study was carried out in Campinas, located in the interior of São Paulo, Brazil.
