Terminal de transporte intermodal como ordenador de la movilidad intermunicipal en Barrancabermeja

Abstract

Barrancabermeja is a city located to the west of the department of Santander on the banks of the Magdalena River. Since October 12, 1536, this territory has been very important for the exploitation of oil, which is why it has the headquarters of the largest refinery in the country. Due to urban and demographic development, influenced by the oil industry, the city's connections with the rest of the country have increased, and in turn the flow of people arriving there. The city of Barrancabermeja has high opportunities for urban development thanks to its tourist and oil nature. However, regarding its mobility infrastructure, the absence of a consolidated land transport equipment is identified, which can unify the means of transport in the city and improve the transport system. The present work aims to analyze the city, and investigate its behavior to propose an architectural solution at a metropolitan level, which manages to articulate the city with the rest of the municipalities of the country, through the design of the intermodal terminal that manages to supply the necessary needs of the population and city.
