Resumen
La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo evaluar qué factor asociado al diseño geométrico y a la señalización representa un mayor nivel de riesgo por siniestro vial en la carretera Bagua – Cajaruro. La población estuvo conformada por la infraestructura vial de la carretera departamental AM-101, ubicada en el departamento de Amazonas, y la muestra corresponde al tramo comprendido entre las localidades de Bagua y Cajaruro. El estudio se realizó durante el año 2025. Es una investigación de tipo básica, con enfoque cuantitativo y diseño no experimental-transversal. La metodología comprendió trabajos en campo y trabajo en gabinete. Asimismo, se realizó una evaluación integrada de los elementos de diseño geométrico y señalización, mediante la identificación de incumplimientos normativos y condiciones operativas de la vía que inciden en la seguridad del tránsito. Como parte de los trabajos de campo, se realizó la identificación de las características geométricas, el registro del inventario vial, el conteo vehicular y la recopilación de información sobre siniestros viales. Los resultados mostraron un incumplimiento normativo del 81.5% de la señalización, un incumplimiento normativo del 58.2% del diseño geométrico y la falta de consistencia y coordinación del trazado en planta y perfil, además de la falta de conservación presente en la vía. Finalmente, los resultados permitieron describir el estado actual de la seguridad vial del tramo e identificar que, si bien la señalización presentó un mayor porcentaje de incumplimiento normativo, las deficiencias asociadas al diseño geométrico mostraron una mayor relación con el nivel de riesgo vial identificado en el tramo evaluado.
The objective of this study was to evaluate which factor associated with geometric design and signage poses the greatest risk of traffic accidents on the Bagua–Cajaruro highway. The study population consisted of the road infrastructure of Departmental Highway AM-101, located in the department of Amazonas, and the sample corresponded to the section between the towns of Bagua and Cajaruro. The study was conducted in 2025. It is a basic research study with a quantitative approach and a non-experimental, cross-sectional design. The methodology included both fieldwork and desk research. Additionally, an integrated assessment of the geometric design and signage elements was conducted by identifying regulatory non-compliance and operational conditions of the road that affect traffic safety. As part of the fieldwork, the geometric characteristics were identified, the road inventory was recorded, vehicle counts were taken, and information on traffic accidents was collected. The results revealed that 81.5% of the signage did not comply with regulations, 58.2% of the geometric design did not comply with regulations, and there was a lack of consistency and coordination in the road layout and profile, in addition to a lack of maintenance on the road. Finally, the results made it possible to describe the current state of road safety on the section and to determine that, although signage showed a higher percentage of noncompliance with regulations, deficiencies related to geometric design were more strongly correlated with the level of road risk identified on the evaluated section.
