Abstract

This research aims to develop a proposal to implement the ISO 39001 standard to improve road safety management in the Municipal GAD of the Colta canton. Several research instruments were necessary to achieve the objective, determined by surveys conducted to road users (drivers and pedestrians). Likewise, interviews addressed to the directors of the Planning Area of the GAD, and the Headquarters of Traffic, Land Transport, and Road Safety were necessary. All these data were analysed and interpreted to set a diagnosis creating a perspective about road safety in the canton. With this essential information, the findings were established by the proposal, describing its content from a plan that determines the requirements of the ISO 39001 Standard to consider for the development of a road safety management system. Aligning tools derived from the context of the organization to continuous improvement. In this way, it was determined that the ISO 39001 Standard focuses on establishing mechanisms capable of managing the road safety of any institution focused on reducing and/or eliminating the risks of deaths and injuries related to traffic accidents. Finally, it is recommended that the JTTTSV of the GADMC allows the development of studies and projects implemented as support for the permanent improvement of the proposed system.
