    This project focuses on improving the road infrastructure of the Llimpe Grande Community to Cerro “Los Llimpes”, the latter an important tourist attraction in the Quero Canton. The objective is to solve transportation problems that affect local agriculture, livestock and tourism, thus promoting the socioeconomic development of the area, as well as of the Canton itself. The work was divided into three main phases. The first phase includes field activities such as delimitation of the area to intervene, topographic survey of the area, vehicle counting and extraction of soil samples. In the second phase, the geometric design of the road was carried out, among which we have the following parameters obtained based on regulations, these are horizontal, vertical and transversal designs, as well as the design of drainage works and the pavement structure. The third phase focused on the preparation of the reference budget. The visual results determined a clearly mountainous relief with quite steep slopes; the traffic study classified the road as class IV. The soil analysis revealed a silty sand type, suitable for subgrade. A pavement structure was designed with a 5 cm asphalt layer, a 10 cm base and a 20 cm subbase. The reference budget for the execution of the project was estimated at $2,144,191.38, a figure that will determine the viability of the work. This investment seeks to significantly improve connectivity, commerce and tourism in the town, contributing to the economic and social growth of the community.
