Abstract

One of the most important roads in Bogota is the called Carrera 13, where is a wide variety of commerce and night recreation places. However, this important road is not different from the mobility problems that haves the city, it is for this reason, that this document it’s made for the analysis and modeling of the current behavior of freight vehicles, with the main objective of evaluating the impact of these vehicles on the mobility of this road in Bogota. The PTV VISSIM modeling tool is used to simulate traffic flow and analyze variables such as congestion, travel times, and safety roads. Also, it´s considered the impact and influence that freight vehicles have on the general traffic of the city and the quality of life of other drivers. The results obtained in this research are direct to offer and provide technical recommendations to improve circulation and propose alternatives regarding the road infrastructure of the Carrera 13 for the access of freight vehicles, contributing to a more efficient and sustainable urban planning in the city.
