The intersection of Tomás Marsano and Manuel Villarán avenues, located in Lima, Peru, lacks adequate infrastructure for pedestrians, especially for those with visual disabilities and in wheelchairs. In addition, the lack of focus on sustainable mobility complicates pedestrian circulation conditions in the area. To address this issue and involve pedestrians in the design phase, the Design Thinking methodology was employed to develop a design proposal that meets their expectations. The study is divided into five stages, which begins by empathizing with users through observation and conducting interviews. Then, we continue to the definition stage, where the current situation of the study area is analyzed. The following stages consist of ideating and prototyping, analyzing the solutions provided by users to prepare the design proposal. Finally, the evaluation stage is carried out, in which the compliance of the design with national regulations is verified and the percentage of improvement with respect to the current situation is calculated. The results of the study indicates that the proposed design improve sidewalks by 32% and crosswalks by 44.6%. Furthermore, regarding the sidewalk and crosswalks indicators, scores of 12.6 and 9.42 were obtained, respectively, which denotes a "good" condition for pedestrian circulation. Lastly, feedback on the proposed design was collected, which can be considered for future research.
