Estudio de tráfico y propuesta de solución al congestionamiento vehicular generado en la avenida Paseo de los Cañaris y Cacique Duma, en la ciudad de Cuenca

Abstract

The study addresses the growth and vehicular congestion in Cuenca, Ecuador, focusing on the intersection of Paseo de los Cañaris Avenue and Cacique Duma. Data was collected through video cameras and manual counts, which were analyzed using Aimsun software to propose a solution based on the obtained service levels. The elimination of a turn, adjustment of traffic light timings, and the implementation of both vertical and horizontal signage have been proposed to alleviate congestion and enhance the quality of life for users.
