The following research proposes to implement measures of coupling of the infrastructure on the current design of the road geometry at the intersection of Av. José Matías Manzanilla with Av. J.J. Elías in Ica city; in order to improve the performance of urban road safety for pedestrians and vulnerable users. The proposals for these improvements are based on the recommendations of the Federal Highway Administration - FHWA of the United States, for the implementation of road safety elements in signalized intersections. In order to know the level of risk to road safety in the study area, the rush hour demand was determined for pedestrians passing through these avenues, by collecting volumetric data on the multimodal traffic flow. In addition, the information on the geometry of the intersection and the current characteristics of signal control devices and horizontal and vertical signaling were incorporated into the analysis. With the support of the information collected, the performance evaluation of the current situation of road safety was implemented with the free access program VIDA-IRAP. The results obtained indicated serious questions to the road safety of vulnerable users, which would be overcome with the implementation of the strategies recommended in this work. Likewise, the recommendations proposed in points 4.2.5. and 4.2.6. of Chapter 4 respectively, develop a checklist of pedestrian accommodation at signalized intersections, that can be included in an update of the Road Safety Manual (MTC, MSV; 2017); as well as a series of techniques and procedures for collecting information and classifying data from the sites under study, to apply operational modifications signal timing, which favor pedestrian safety and which can be included in an update of the Control Devices Manual of Automotive Traffic for Streets and Highways (MTC; MDCTACC, 2016).
