    The present technical work aims to implement a conservation process in the asphalt layer of the Montalvo-Totoras road, methods were applied with data obtained in the field and in the laboratory, which provided a clearer vision of the current physical characteristics of the road. This project began with the georeferenced survey using the Garmin GPSMAP 64s, obtaining a total of 600 points that were taken every 20 meters, which determined the 4000 meters length of a single section road with two lanes in different directions, the existence of signage and rainwater drainage ditches was found. The 12-hour vehicle count in 15-minute intervals for 7 consecutive days served to calculate the future ADT of 1122 vehicles / day, being within the range of 1000 to 3000 vehicles / day (Class II collector), it indicates that the road is not It will require some expansion within 20 years since the number of lanes currently on the road will be sufficient for the expected traffic. By means of the PCI method based on field visualization, a record of failures was made and with the non-destructive test of the Benkelman Beam the deflections in the track were calculated. It was also verified that the subgrade is in a fair to good state by the CBR test for the wearing course.
