Hasta el 2006 se desarrolló en 23 ciudades capitales analizando el transporte público municipal prestado en el perímetro urbano. Actualmente la cobertura abarca 8 áreas metropolitanas (Barranquilla, Bogotá, Bucaramanga, Cali, Cúcuta, Manizales, Medellín, Pereira) y 15 ciudades del país. Mensualmente se recolecta y consolida información por tipo de vehículo y nivel de servicio; en lo referente al parque automotor se recoge información sobre viajes recorridos, kilómetros recorridos, pasajeros movilizados y tarifa diurna vigente. Las variables principales de la encuesta son el parque automotor y el número de pasajeros transportados por las empresas legalmente constituidas, que prestan el servicio de transporte y que tienen asociado el pago de una tarifa cuyo valor es determinado por las autoridades competentes (Secretaría de Tránsito y Transporte) en cada uno de los municipios.

    A MIXED-USE AND WALKABLE BOGOTÁ: A Transit-Oriented Strategy for the City’s First Fixed-Rail Public Transit Corridor Cristina Calderón Restrepo A capstone thesis paper submitted to the Executive Director of the Urban & Regional Planning Program at Georgetown University’s School of Continuing Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Master of Professional Studies in Urban & Regional Planning. Faculty Advisor: Harriet Tregoning Academic Advisor: Uwe S. Brandes © Copyright 2018 by Cristina Calderón Restrepo All Rights Reserved 1 ABSTRACT This project explores the creation of an urban planning framework to improve land use near metro stations in Bogotá. This framework will make the new proposed metro stations in Bogotá vibrant community places that attract new investment in housing, office, and retail development. The research looks at lessons-learned from previous transit systems like TransMilenio and how cities like Medellín, Washington, D.C., and Hong Kong have created vibrant and sustainable transit-oriented development (TOD) that Bogotá can replicate in its own way. This research is based on the public proposals for Metro, studies made by the city and multilateral development banks, existing research in other cities, and interviews with leading experts in the field. Through this research I advance new urban development options for Metro stations and their areas of influence. The paper recommends TOD strategies to make transit more democratic and to avoid future gentrification and displacement in station areas.

Jamás habría llegado a donde estoy sin ellos. También a todos los buenos profesores a lo largo de mi vida que se esforzaron en educarme, especialmente a aquellos que incluso fueron más allá de sus obligaciones para ayudarme siempre que lo necesité. Igualmente recordar a todos mis amigos y compañeros de la carrera y darles las gracias por hacer más llevaderos los malos momentos, especialmente todas esas semanas de estudio antes de los exámenes.

Es por esto que se ha decidido centrar este trabajo en el sector del transporte y dentro de este, en la clase de transporte más energéticamente eficiente y ecológica, que es el ferrocarril.

    On the Surnames of Latin American Presidents

    BASQUE LEGACY IN THE NEW WORLD: ON THE SURNAMES OF LATIN AMERICAN PRESIDENTS Patxi Salaberri Iker Salaberri UPNA / NUP UPV / EHU Abstract In this article we explain the etymology of the surnames of Basque origin that some presidents of Latin American countries have or have had in the past. These family names were created in the language called Euskara, in the Basque Country (Europe), and then, when some of the people who bore them emigrated to America, they brought their sur- names with them. Most of the family names studied here are either oiconymic or topo- nymic, but it must be kept in mind that the oiconymic ones are, very often, based on house-nicknames, that is, they are anthroponymic in the first place. As far as possible, we have related the surname, when its origin is oiconymic or toponymic, to its source, i.e. to the house or place where it was created. Key words: Basque, etymology, family name, Latin America, oiconym, placename, nickname.

TUM 2014 “Sustainable Mobility in Metropolitan Regions”, May 19-20, 2014 Public Transport and Accessibility in Informal Settlements: Aerial Cable Cars in Medellín, Colombia Dirk Heinrichsa*, Judith S. Bernetb a Institute of Transport Research, German Aerospace Centre, Rutherfordstraße 2, 12489 Berlin, Germany b Kontextplan AG, Biberiststrasse 24, 4500 Solothurn, Switzerland Abstract The MetroCable in Medellín, the second largest city in Colombia, is perhaps one of the most prominent recent expansions of public transport infrastructure in urban Latin America. This article explores the question how and in what ways the MetroCable affects accessibility of the residents in two municipalities - Santa Cruz and Popular - where it operates since 2004. The presentation combines an analysis of the influence of the MetroCable on accessibility in general with a specific inquiry on female residents and the role of security. The paper adopts a differentiated conceptualization and indicators of accessibility. The analysis draws on statistical quantitative data from the Origin-Destination surveys for Medellín of 2005 and 2011/2 and about 30 in-depth semi structured interviews with female residents conducted in 2012. The paper concludes with a discussion on the possible lessons for planning interventions for improving accessibility of residents in low-income neighborhoods and a discussion on methodological implications. © 20142014 The The Authors.
