Abstract

This document, entitled “Design of the Strategic Road Safety Plan for the University of La Guajira,” presents a consulting project whose main objective is to develop a plan to ensure road safety in the university environment. The main analysis highlights the absence of a Strategic Road Safety Plan (PESV) at the institution, which constitutes a risk to the academic community and a breach of current regulations. Using a structured methodological approach, the document presents an assessment of the current situation, defines specific objectives, and proposes concrete actions to promote a culture of safe mobility, protecting students and employees and ensuring compliance with road safety laws. Considering that the following work emphasizes the development of phase 1 of Resolution 20223040040595 of 2022, which analyzes the behavior of road users. The development of the first phase allowed for the initial diagnosis of the university's road infrastructure, the state of deterioration of signage, and the registration of vehicles and drivers to be identified. By implementing a risk assessment and control characterization matrix inside and outside the university, the level of risk associated with road safety activities is obtained, which generates a critical result related to vehicular traffic, road infrastructure, and the behavior of road users in the university community. Based on the information, improvement actions are carried out with the implementation of critical risk management and performance factor programs, applying regulatory standards for safe mobility
