Road transport represents one of the main axes for the development and expansion of a country. However, there are several factors why this important resource is not developed with total efficiency. One of these is represented by the high population density in urban centers and its rapid annual growth, giving rise to one of the greatest negative effects in cities that do not put more effort into urban management and planning, traffic congestion. Annually, the increment of the vehicle fleet responds to the demand for a greater number of people who have as one of their main needs to travel from one place to another, for different causes. This generates that the quantity of vehicles increases uncontrollably, making that the quality of the road systems is not the most optimal. One way to measure the quality of transport systems is by their travel times. In Latin America, the average travel time is 64 minutes. Within this statistic is the city of Lima, which has an average travel time of 82 minutes. This makes it one of the cities with the least efficient transportation system in the region. The congestion in the city of Lima is due to the disorder in the roads that generate a great number of vehicles that circulate in them; Besides, of the worst urban planning represented by commercial zones that were developed without projection, prohibited stops and parking that are generated due to the bad practice of the drivers, disobedience towards the traffic signals, among others. These factors are considered as the main causes of vehicle delays, reaching up to 100 seconds/vehicle within the analyzed intersection. Therefore, this paper evaluates and propose a solution to one of the main roads in Cercado de Lima, which presents the factors described above. Employing the microsimulation with the Vissim 9 program, it is sought to represent the vehicular traffic with the observed conditions, besides applying the geometric redesign as proposed improvement, the analysis that is obtained reduces up to 69.08% of the current vehicular delay reaching 31 seconds/vehicle. Ensuring an improvement in the quality of service at the intersection.
