Abstract

The transport models have taken great relevance in the last decades because they help to make big urban planning decisions. In this sense, supply models, such as global average accessibility, seek to approach more and more to reality in order to represent it in the best possible way. In this research article, we compare the different penalties for turns used in the global average accessibility models in the city of Manizales, being compared with the preliminary results of a research thesis in which the penalties for turns were calculated by means of an empirical methodology that analyzes different road intersections in the city. At the end, the savings gradient method is used to measure the differences between the different calculated scenarios.
