Analysis of traffic congestion in the AMC

High vehicle congestion causes low levels of mobility for citizens in the main cities of Venezuela and visibly in the Metropolitan Area of Caracas (AMC), representing additional costs that are added to consumer products and inputs, as it is directly related to man-hours lost in it, preventing the completion of tasks at the scheduled times. The objectives of this research are to identify and analyse the causes that originate it, developing and proposing alternatives and/or solution strategies. In this case, the observation of the problem is carried out, as well as the consultation of opinion to elements intrinsic to the investigation, knowing and registering every detail of the situation; with this, a clear and precise vision of the details and information necessary to diagnose the situation found and of data of interest for the contents of the proposal is achieved.
