Dr. Rolf Moller, Professor of Environmental Management in the Faculty of Engineering University of Valle, an analysis from a theoretical perspective the types of routes, in this case the Cali do and the contribution that the 21 "megaprojects" will have on travel times and quality of life in Cali. a high percentage of daily trips are short distance within the neighborhood or from nearby neighborhoods (up to 1 kilometer). The problems associated with these routes are: the lack of paving over a quarter of the road network in Cali, the poor quality of the platforms, the high accident risk for pedestrians, the almost complete absence of bike paths or spaces for safe mobility of cyclists. Moller poses another significant percentage of trips are medium distances, a few kilometers (Cali average: 8 kilometers). The problems here are lack of bike paths makes it dangerous for the cycling, public transport slow, stuck in traffic jams and slowing each other, traffic jams caused mainly by the large number of cars and motorbikes in circulation, the poor state of roads, made worse by construction, slow travel and the high level of traffic accidents, noise, air pollution. Additionally, the teacher suggests that a not so high in the daily tours are a long distance over 10 miles by car, bike or public transport group, type of journey ls facing problems mentioned above.
With regard to the above, ie the types of routes and the difficulties it is important to ask whether, in essence, the 21 "megaprojects" are aimed at solving these apsectos of our mobility in the city . I have to do more research on the larger project to identify the social finción this mega project will have.
