Abstract

La accesibilidad de la población pobre a los centros de empleo y a los servicios colectivos de una ciudad es un asunto clave para la equidad espacial. Este trabajo estima y analiza las brechas de accesibilidad entre las zonas más pobres y los clústeres de empleo de Cali, usando el sistema de transporte masivo de la ciudad tipo BRT (Bus Rapid Transit). En primer lugar, se estimaron índices de acceso a las estaciones y paradas del sistema y posteriormente se evaluó la accesibilidad que este brinda para alcanzar las centralidades de empleo. Los índices locales y globales de correlación espacial, calculados en la segunda etapa, sugieren la existencia de desemparejamiento espacial en el acceso a las zonas de centralidad laboral. Este desemparejamiento espacial es más grave en los barrios con alta concentración de población afrocolombiana, bajo nivel educativo y estratificación social y económica desfavorable. Los resultados apoyan la hipótesis de que Cali tiene un fuerte patrón espacial de segregación residencial con elevada desigualdad económica y étnica que persiste y genera inequidades espaciales graves en el acceso a las oportunidades urbanas.
