Auditoría de seguridad vial mediante la metodología iRAP en la Panamericana Norte, tramo Capulispamba – vía a Jadán (5.10 km)

Abstract

This research evaluates road safety along a 5.10 km section of the Panamericana Norte, between Capulispamba and Vía a Jadán, in response to increasing crash rates and the projected traffic growth due to the Monay interchange. The iRAP methodology is applied to identify risk factors and prioritize cost-effective interventions. The study includes fieldwork, measurement and coding of variables in the ViDA–iRAP platform, and safety analysis through the star rating classification system. Finally, technical improvement proposals are formulated to reduce crash frequency and severity. The results will support decision-making in road infrastructure planning and traffic management.
