Urban mobility and infrastructure planning in Mendoza

Overview

Urban planning and mobility initiatives are being proposed in Mendoza, Argentina.

One proposal, drafted by the Asociación de Empresarios Rodríguez Peña (Aderpe), focuses on the Rodríguez Peña industrial corridor spanning Godoy Cruz, Maipú, and Guaymallén. The plan seeks to replace five traffic lights with roundabouts and add four more to improve heavy cargo vehicle flow and manage traffic from upcoming Acceso Este works. The project is currently under evaluation by the Dirección Provincial de Vialidad.

Separately, provincial deputy Daniel Llaver has introduced the “Mendoza en Movimiento” program. This legislative project aims to create a metropolitan network of corridors for non-motorized mobility, such as pedestrians and cyclists. The initiative proposes closing strategic streets to motor vehicles on Sundays and holidays to promote public health and reduce pollution, starting with pilot programs in various departments including Luján and Las Heras.
