Abstract

In this work the study of traffic accidents involving buses of urban public transport in the city of Cuenca is presented Initially the most important aspects are described in the study of traffic accidents (accident type or cause of accidents), based on the bibliographic information from documents dealing with traffic accidents overall. There is also the need for an additional diagnosis based on the location of traffic accidents involving urban public transport buses in the city of Cuenca with the aid of ArcGis program that allows one to locate the points of each accident on a road map of the city. Subsequently, a statistical analysis of the problem based on the time, day of the week, cause and type of traffic accidents involving urban public transport buses in the city of Cuenca was made by supplementing this study with a future projection trend of the problem, improving the perception of the effects of the problem, if it is not treated in time. The projection is done with the help of the ARIMA method. Consecutively, scientific research on the proposals that have been raised in other countries in the region and posing significant progress in reducing traffic accidents is performed. Finally, proposals were formulated specifically for reducing traffic accidents involving urban public transport buses in the city of Cuenca.
