Mejoramiento vial Calle 26 con Carrera 33

Abstract

This document proposes a new arterial road design, its function is to communicate the areas of Calle 26 and Carrera 33, Bogota. It is subject to the regulations of the National Institute of Roads (INVIAS), the work has an area of influence of 146348.11m2 according to "Bogotá Maps" and makes use of the specifications for a road of this magnitude. It consists of a depressed road on 26th Street in both directions, a bridge for Transmilenio in the direction of Carrera 33 that works with a connector to Carrera 30, and also has interchangers for the four directions that this vehicular point has. The material used for the construction of the road is designed under the type of surface of flexible pavement (asphalt binder) and rigid pavement (concrete slabs). As for the slope changes, a value of 5% was taken into account for the depressed road, 5% for the bridge and 0.3% as a minimum for the other roads of the project; it was sought that the slopes were mostly lower than the maximum allowed of 8%, because it is of great importance to have a reasonable slope for the transition in such large infrastructures as the ones developed in this project.
