The intersection of José Granda and Universitaria avenues, located in the district of San Martín de Porres, Lima (known as Óvalo José Granda), is a junction with an unconventional geometric design, which is shaped like a roundabout, but does not operate as such. It consists of a traffic light crossing with four accesses that cross the roundabout inside it, in the North-South, South-North directions, generating intersections in all the lanes of the roundabout and very low speeds, which are extremely dangerous in its operation. To mitigate the problem encountered, the intersection has been redesigned by implementing a diamond-type traffic light interchange, at level; for which two alternatives of traffic light coordination have been applied, both with fixed time control. From vehicle traffic modeling in AIMSUN software for microsimulation analysis and SYNCHRO for traffic light coordination optimization; Of the three evaluated scenarios (current situation, alternatives 1 and 2), two measures of effectiveness were compared, the delay time (sec / veh) and the number of stops (# / veh / km), concluding that the operational results improve with alternative 1; however, they worsen with alternative 2, evaluated against the current situation. It is recommended to analyze the alternatives proposed with activated traffic lights (flexible time, activated by traffic); as well as, with public transport stops, are located outside the analysis area, so that they do not affect the operation of the proposed design.
