Abstract

The article focuses on proposing sustainable solutions for pedestrians that give continuity in its path and make the place attractive to walk, contemplate or take a break including green infrastructure around it to increase the amount of green area per inhabitant which It is lacking. The general objective proposes to develop a plan for pedestrian and cycle path mobility with a green area to improve the connectivity of the study sector. The study methodology is developed in four steps in which the quality of pedestrian infrastructure is identified, the quantity and quality of demand for pedestrian mobility is determined and the designs of the proposal for pedestrian mobility (road cycle) and the proposal of green areas through a database of Question Pro being evaluated in the TOPSIS platform to determine the guidelines of the proposal design of the two focus groups of the study.
