Análisis y soluciones de seguridad vial en un corredor de transporte público ubicado al sur oocidente de la ciudad de Quito, sobre el eje vial de la avenida Mariscal Sucre, tramo crítico entre las calles Tabiazo y Ajaví, para contrarrestar la siniestralidad

Abstract

The current study has been developed in a public transport corridor located in the southwestern part of the city of Quito, between Tabiazo and Ajaví streets, with the aim of counteracting the amount of claims that occur presented in the aforementioned section and provide greater road safety between vehicles and pedestrians, due to the presence of accidents that occur as indicated by the operations department of the Sur Occidental Consortium. In order to achieve the proposed objective, it was necessary to implement a methodology that includes field work and office studies, which have been developed in this work. This project began by delimiting the area of direct affectation, to carry out surveys, likewise a statistical analysis has been carried out with the information obtained from the National Transit Agency and series of data provided by the South Western Consortium, to specifically determine the root of the occurrence of the claims. It was observed that the actor that generates the greatest amount of accidents is the human factor, the probable causes are the recklessness of the driver and speeding, the main factor of occurrence being speeding. After carrying out the statistical study, the technical-economic analysis of controlling the speed of movement by installing GPS within the units has been proposed, which will allow to reduce the accident rate in a certain way.
