    The elaboration of the current technical project has as purpose the design of the road that connects the sectors of Calamaca and Chiquiurco, for promoting the socioeconomical, touristic and commercial development of the sector. The project includes the complete geometric design of the highway, its pavement structure, complementary works, and the estimation of the referential budget. It was necessary to carry out field works such as topographic survey, traffic study and soil analysis. The topographic survey of the road was carried out with the help of the Total Station, taking points of the axis and edge of the road and detailing points of interest such as buildings, culverts and watercourses. The traffic study was carried out through a manual vehicle count, obtaining a TPDA of 230 vehicles/day for the year 2041, classifying the road as a Class IV country road. The geometric design was carried out according to the topography of the terrain and based on the MTOP 2003 and NEVI-12 standards. While for the pavement design, the corresponding laboratory testgs were performed and, applying the AASHTO-93 Method, the thicknesses of the different layers of the pavement structure were obtained. In addition, drainage works were designed, such as gutters and sewers, which contribute to preserve the road by controlling and evacuating the surface water. Finally, the referential budget for the project was estimated, establishing the items, volumes of works and technical specifications.
