Formulación, análisis y evaluación del proyecto de infraestructura vial Tixan-Chiquintad, abarcando el tramo entre las progresivas 1+900 y 3+800, en la ciudad de Cuenca, provincia del Azuay

Abstract

The project proposes the geometric and structural design of the Tixán–Chiquintad road to improve safety and accessibility. Pavement deterioration was identified with cracks, potholes, and drainage issues. The design was based on topographic, traffic, and geotechnical studies to define the pavement structure, drainage, and signage. Finally, a budget of USD 785,081.44 was estimated to assess the project's feasibility. Keywords: Geometric design, Pavement structure, Topographic studies, Drainage, Signage, Geotechnical studies, Safety and accessibility.
