TY - NEWS TI - Technical feasibility study for the implementation of pedestrian safety mechanisms AU - Rojas Suárez, Jhan Piero AU - Orjuela Abril, Martha Sofia AU - Prada Botia, Gaudy Carolina AB - The increase in distractions when driving or walking on a road has proportionally increased the number of accidents that occur each year, with pedestrians being the most affected. For this reason, an attempt is made to study the characteristics of a vehicle road, identifying the critical points and road sections of maximum demand of the inhabitants, who are the ones most in need of pedestrian crossings. For this reason, a statistical and technical study of traffic is proposed by means of vehicular gauges with respect to the most representative days that help to determine quantitatively the vehicular flow that circulates through this road corridor, by means of graphs, tables that help to identify the statistical data without still leaving aside the importance of a study of pedestrian traffic by means of a count in typical days of mobilization with the purpose of determining the pedestrian volume, due to its increase in the indexes of accidents caused by different types of transport, in which the motorcycles stand out.
