Estudio de factibilidad para la implementación de un sistema de estacionamiento rotativo tarifario en el centro de la zona urbana del cantón Guamote provincia de Chimborazo

Abstract

The "Feasibility study for the implementation of a rotating parking system in the center of the urban area of Guamote Canton, province of Chimborazo" was developed with the objective of analyzing the factors that influence the implementation of a rotating parking system. For the development of the investigation, methods, techniques, and instruments were applied, such as an interview with the director of the Traffic Unit, a survey of the population and the owners of the vehicles, where several shortcomings were evidenced, such as the great concentration of traffic, due to the great agglomeration of traffic, which causes greater vehicular and pedestrian influx in the main streets giving priority to the vehicle and not to the pedestrian, on fair days and at peak hours it is impossible to find a space to park because the owners of the houses appropriate the sidewalk and the street, in the same way, they park the vehicles for long hours without any regulation because there is no cantonal ordinance, thus the improper use of the different vehicle parking spaces in the different streets of the canton is also observed. Three proposals were developed: technical, operational and economic, analyzing the income and expenditures of this project, demonstrating that the rotating parking system is feasible according to the four financial indicators: NPV 28407.21; IRR 5% COST/BENEFIT 1.15 and PRI 1.03. By implementing this system, mobility in the downtown area of the canton will be improved. It is recommended that the municipality invest in the Fare System because it is a short-term investment, it will be recovered in approximately one year and later income will be obtained and it will be possible to invest in works for the canton.
