Motorized mobility

IMG_8531

In 2022, the university population that traveled by public transportation systems did so mainly through urban bus lines (45%) and the Metrorrey System (17%). A small group uses rental cars, such as taxis, and application platforms such as Uber, DiDi, Cabify, Beat, etc. (3.4%), also including a percentage of the population that does so by ride or hitchhike (2.1%). 1.3% use the Ecovía and 0.5% opt for the use of motorcycles.

Projects applicable to motorized vehicles:

  • Design and construction of vehicular access gate on Universidad Av. (FACPyA).
  • Design and construction of vehicular access gate on Universidad Av. (Rectory Tower).
  • Design and construction of vehicular access gate on Av. Fidel Velázquez (General Services).

Ascent and descent bays

They are those spaces designated on the sides of vehicular roads whose purpose is the safe ascent and descent of passengers to public and private transportation units. These spaces must have the conditions that allow the safe waiting of their users, such as bollards, change in pavement texture, wide sidewalks, clear signage, appropriate section widths depending on the type of arriving vehicles, comfortable and safe furniture for the wait, among others.

Public Transportation Monitoring System

Monitoring software must be developed for the monitoring and location of public transport units that serve Ciudad Universitaria, implemented in conjunction with the AET (or equivalent), EISA system and SEDESU Nuevo León, through which it will be possible to know the arrival time of the units that will be projected on digital screens in the pick-up and drop-off bays inside and outside the campus. Likewise, an application that is compatible with smartphones or current technology must be implemented.

Reorganization of parking spaces

The attributes with which the reorganization of the 54 parking lots identified in CU must comply, to replicate the best practices worldwide are the following:

  • Permeable pavement systems that allow the absorption of rainwater into the subsoil.
  • Automated access control systems.
  • Have absorption areas, equipped with tree species from the region and creeping plants.
  • Drawers properly delimited and classified; for people with disabilities, motorcycles, electric vehicles, compact vehicles, large vehicles, for loading and unloading (where applicable).
  • Adequate horizontal and vertical signage, based on applicable regulations.
  • Defined interior walkways that guarantee the safety of pedestrians.
