Resumen
The objective of this research was to propose a management model called the Riobamba Traffic
Control Center, applying the use of information and communication technologies to boost traffic
in the urban area. For which primary information sources were used, such as the interview with
the technical staff of the Mobility Department, to know the actions of how they control the
operation of traffic lights and through which parameters traffic is managed to avoid congestion;
observation cards were also applied at traffic light intersections covering parameters such as:
types, number, and structure of traffic lights; control devices; number of phases; cycle lengths
and technical specifications; once the information gathering was completed, the current state of
the traffic lights that control traffic and the problems of congestion caused was established, thus
obtaining 63% of traffic lights that have a 300 mm lens in red light and in the light 200 mm yellow
and green and 37% of traffic lights are 200 mm in diameter in red, yellow and green light. Once
the current situation has been analyzed, a traffic management model structured in four
components is proposed, which focus on organizational strategy, processes, human talent,
information systems and technology, to control traffic light cycles in real time in order to reduce
vehicle congestion, improve travel times, and prioritize public transportation. In conclusion, the
traffic lights of the city of Riobamba operate with programmed fixed times and very long cycles
that do not guarantee a dynamic traffic, which is why it suggests that the Directorate of Mobility,
Traffic and Transport Management consider this research as a guide to decrease the vehicular
congestion and travel times.
