ABSTRACT
Planning priorities in Bogota have historically focused on demographic, economic, and urban development needs with partial consideration of municipalities in its vicinity. Bogota is a frequent reference in local and international urban research from the optics of transport, urban planning, and urban development. Bogota shows important inequalities in access to housing throughout the territory. Bogota’s concentration of economic activities in the expanded center of the city is well-documented in the literature and has both positive and negative consequences. The functional configuration of Bogota has determined the main infrastructure developments for urban mobility in the city. Vision Zero in Bogota has been adopted as a cross-cutting issue with a shared responsibility of citizens and the state. Bogota’s history of urban development and transport policy continues to be an interesting case for analysis and reference in the planning of large-scale urban settings.
