Abstract

Based on a concern to assess walkability conditions in Mazatlán, the study named Mazatlán: Cómo Andamos was developed, applying the urban biopsies methodology. This approach involved selecting diverse urban sectors to deploy observation and measurement techniques to evaluate their walkability conditions. The study concluded with recommendations to improve the city’s urban and environmental conditions. These recommendations were oriented towards promoting healthier mobility in response to the new scenarios generated by the COVID-19 pandemic and global trends arising from climate change.
