    At present, roads are a fundamental element for communication and the economic and social development of towns. This is a project of vital importance to reduce the travel time of people since it allows connecting extreme points directly, reducing time and costs for potential users. The geometric design was carried out through a process of study of the current conditions of the road, the methodology applied in the research was the survey of the terrain with the use of the total station, as well as the traffic count that served as a parameter to categorize the road through the application of the MTOP 2003 standard and allow an optimal design development of the same, also research methods such as documentary bibliography and field research were used, where the characteristics of the road were analyzed in order to have optimal conditions, and thus design a pavement that responds to the traffic solicitations, preserving and maintaining the characteristics of the road, these data were evaluated and fed back with the purpose of complying with the conditioning factors, always seeking the optimization of the physical reality and improving the functionality of the layout.
