The model was applied as a case study to two actual cycleways in the Brazilian capital, Brasília. The sustainability indicator selection process employed the Delphi method with 9 senior experts from the field of transportation and originally 650 indicators were identified. These were converted to provide 28 consolidated indicators. Multi-attribute Utility Theory method was used to establish a hierarchy of the Dimensions, Characteristics and Indicators. Nine other experts defined levels of importance and attributed weights to Dimensions, Characteristics and Indicators. 40 weights altogether were attributed to the three hierarchic levels and the final weight for each level was taken to be the arithmetical average of the weights indicated by the 9 experts. The weights of the indicators were multiplied by the weights of their respective Characteristics and Dimensions, resulting in an equation for the Sustainability Index in the form of a linear combination of the weights with the indicators. The users of the analyzed cycleways were interviewed and assigned scores to each of the indicators. From these scores, it was possible to calculate the sustainability indicator of each bicycle path. The cicloway 2 had a better rating compared to cicloway 1 in all weighting scenarios analyzed. Este artigo propôs um modelo quantitativo usando Dimensões, Características e Indicadores de Sustentabilidade para avaliar a sustentabilidade das ciclovias. O modelo foi aplicado como um estudo de caso a duas ciclovias reais na capital brasileira, Brasília. O processo de seleção de indicadores de sustentabilidade empregou o método Delphi com 9 especialistas seniores da área de transporte e, originalmente, foram identificados 650 indicadores. Estes foram convertidos para fornecer 28 indicadores consolidados. Utilizou-se o método Função Multiatributo Aditiva (Multiattribute Utility Theory) para estabelecer uma hierarquia de dimensões, características e indicadores. Outros nove especialistas definiram níveis de importância e atribuíram pesos a Dimensões, Características e Indicadores. No total, 40 pesos foram atribuídos aos três níveis hierárquicos e o peso final de cada nível foi considerado a média aritmética dos pesos indicados pelos 9 especialistas. Os pesos dos indicadores foram multiplicados pelos pesos de suas respectivas Características e Dimensões, resultando em uma equação para o Índice de Sustentabilidade na forma de uma combinação linear dos pesos com os indicadores. Os usuários das ciclovias analisadas foram entrevistados e atribuíram pontuações a cada um dos indicadores. A partir dessas pontuações, foi possível calcular o indicador de sustentabilidade de cada ciclovia. A ciclovia 2 obteve uma melhor avaliação em relação a ciclovia 1 em todos os cenários de ponderação analisados.
