Resumo
The use of the bicycle as an important vehicle of daily transport generates social, environmental and economic gains, including improvement of air quality, reducing traffic jams and regular physical activity that benefits the quality of life and human health. The present research aimed to make a diagnosis on the use of bicycles in the city of Atibaia, São Paulo, and road safety user educate on the role of environmental education and education for transit - of interdisciplinary methodological essence on the awareness of citizens, emphasizing a safe and environmentally sustainable transit. The methodology used was qualitative exploratory type, based in a case study in the city mentioned above. We had the participation of teachers from elementary education, cyclists and drivers. Data were collected through systematic observation and interviews with the implementation of specific questionnaires, and we analyzed employing the technique of processing and tabulation categories, according to Bardin. The results, showed that teachers understand that environmental education is fundamental for building knowledge and values related to the practice of solidarity when in transit and respect for the environment, reason is why they work this theme with their students through projects and, in the disciplines, transversely. For cyclists and drivers, the benefits and risks of adopting bike are clear, however, unaware of some safety items that are required for the movement of bicycles and thereby endanger the physical safety of users. We can notice unsafe conditions studied in bike lane itself, which leads to the conclusion that the implementation of infrastructure already projected by the authorities for the current bike lane should consider encouraging the use of bicycles and thus provide a better quality of life and environmental sustainability cyclists, motorists and pedestrians. Actions in partnership with schools in the region, aimed at the inclusion of environmental education with emphasis on traffic education in formal and non-formal education, are essential to public awareness.
