| dc.description.abstract | This research addresses the issue between mobility and public space in the city of Quito, Ecuador, to determine if in Quito, it is feasible to switch the use of private vehicles into a more efficient electric form of transport? To answer the question, a case study was determined as a neuralgically example in the city, the Plaza Argentina. The research gathered data about the feasibility of such a change. To this extent, information was obtained on the transport preferences of users in the city (who currently prefer to use private cars) since public transport in Quito is unable to compete with private vehicles. Therefore, the research was expanded to encompass the quality of mobility and public space as cross-cutting issues for an integral transformation within the city. A transformation proposal was developed between citizens and academic students, which through interviews, surveys and focus groups, provided the basic ideas for redesigning the city's transport network related to the Plaza Argentina. The proposal consists of an intermodal transport network operating at several scales, which articulates the city and combines the advantages of private and public transportation. In terms of energy, this proposal contemplates the full operativity of the project as it includes the necessary data and calculation to ensure the performance and efficiency of a new transportation system. | en_US |
