    Inefficiency of the bus public transport system to meet users’ needs: optimizing the railway infrastructure and equipment in the Paraná Metropolitan Area
    (Inglés I. Universidad Tecnológica Nacional. Facultad Regional Paraná, 2024-11) Claucich, Tomás Agustín; Frickel, Emiliano Ezequiel; Varisco, Valentín Ariel
    Summary— It has been observed that in the metropolitan area of Paraná, which includes Oro Verde, Colonia Avellaneda, and San Benito, there is a significant need for effective public transport options. This area has a bus transport system and two railway lines. However, the railway system was closed and abandoned, and the existing services fail to meet user demand. The purpose of this project is to address the public transport system's inability to meet users' needs. The goal is to recondition the existing infrastructure and take advantage of its potential to complement the bus system. This work is organized as follows. First, the context and problematic of the transport system will be examined, focusing on the current situation in Paraná and its neighboring localities. Then, the problem will be defined through an identification of the deficiencies in the existing public transport system. Following this, the causes and consequences of this problem will be discussed. Finally, the implementation of an electric railway system will be addressed as a viable alternative solution. This work is intended to raise awareness about the need to improve the transport system in the region.
