Sumario:[EN] ANALYSIS OF THE ROAD SAFETY OF THE A-31 HIGHWAY BETWEEN THE PPKK 195 + 000 AND 210 + 000 (PROVINCE OF ALICANTE) AND PROPOSALS FOR IMPROVEMENT The object of this analysis is the study of the deficiencies that appear in the A-31 highway between the PPKK 195 + 000 and 210 + 000, in order to determine in an exact and precise way what is the current state of the road, which they are the main risks that this presents and the proposal of various improvement actions that increase road safety on the road. For this, the analysis of the different factors that influence the road safety of the A-31 motorway has been carried out. The analysis of the current situation allows to observe the existence of deficiencies in the margins of the road, such as the presence of potentially dangerous obstacles, reduced visibility and unprotected clearings that affect the safety of users. By analysing the existing route, it has been possible to verify the adequacy of the elements of the road to the criteria and limitations imposed by the Highway Instruction in its Article 3.1. The analysis of the traffic reveals that in two of the three sub-sections in which the road has been subdivided the traffic conditions are good, with a level of service A. However, in the central sub-section of the route, which has a complicated layout and a complex orography, the level of service is reduced to being B in half the time. The analysis of the consistency reveals that there are, in the increasing sense of PPKK, three sections in which the local consistency is acceptable, so the difference in speed between elements is more than 10 km / h. In the decreasing sense, there are four sections in which the local consistency is acceptable. The global consistency of both senses is good. The analysis of the accident rate allows to determine the points of conflict in which more accidents have occurred over the years. Likewise, the analysis allows us to accurately characterize the most common type of accident in both directions. After the analysis of all the influential factors in road safety, it is possible to carry out a diagnosis of the existing problems in the route. Based on this diagnosis, we proceed to the proposal of a series of actions aimed at improving road safety in the section. The improvement proposals that are defined in this project have the objective of solving the existing problems in the section through low or medium cost actions. Thus, by means of measures in which the relationship between benefit and cost is maximum, the problem detected in the layout is solved.
