This research aims to analyze the territorial urban strategy entitled transit-oriented development (TOD), a methodology originated in the United States, which for at least 30 years has been little discussed and applied in Brazil. Faced with the challenges imposed in the 21st century in terms of sustainability and the projection of upward population growth of Brazilian cities, DOT planning is a viable concrete alternative for the transformation of today's dispersed, distant, and disconnected (3D) cities into future compact, connected and coordinated urban complexes (3C). Thus, based on the characterization of the DOT, it has led to the conclusion that this methodology is suitable for application in Brasília, Federal District, so that mass transport planning in the city would integrate with urban planning, in a fairer and more equitable way.
