This study aims to conduct a preliminary study on the construction of a marine terminal in the
city of Tucuruí. For this purpose was held a literature search and document relating to water
transport, as well as a field survey to identify the conditions under which this mode of
transport operating in the city, since its infrastructure to the perception of users and operators,
using the observation and interview as a technique for data collection. In addition, we sought
theoretical foundation of the Brazilian standards with regard to the design of passenger
terminals and cargo. By analyzing the results of research, came to the conclusion that while
Tucuruí has a considerable movement of people and cargo, both in the city and commuting,
passengers and owners of vessels are unhappy with the lack of infraestrura berths, making it
difficult and dangerous activities of loading and unloading. Thus, we proposed a layout of a
marine terminal that meets the needs of both passengers and cargo. The site chosen for the
implementation of the terminal was the neighborhood of Mangal, as a region that meets the
technical requirements identified as necessary for the implementation of the terminal, such as
depth and conditions, in addition, this project would bring further development and
appreciation for the site. The project was developed based on the technical standard NBR
15450:2006 regarding the accessibility of passenger water transport system. With the
improvement of the implementation of this proposed infrastructure will enable the terminal to
increase the efficiency of water transport, attracting new users and leverage the region's
development.
