Most roads have been designed without taking into account the high rate projected vehicle where there is the necessity to rearrange the traffic. Transit Agency and the municipality are public entities that are responsible of the planning and marking of road networks, with the aim of achieving a pedestrian and vehicular movement compatible with the environment.

These parameters should be analyzed and studied for the application of methodologies to reorder the movement of the city.

Also of the same way it has collected information from each one of the traffics signs, it is geo-referenced and analyzed to extract conclusions.
