Relaciones entre la estructura urbana y la movilidad cotidiana en Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, México.

The research describes and explains the patterns, costs and limits of daily mobility caused by the urban structure of Ciudad Juarez. The concatenation of classical and contemporary theories of location, urban structure and mobility underpinned the analysis processes and results of this study. Methodologically, Moran's I and Getis-Ord's G spatial autocorrelation techniques were implemented for the analysis of INEGI's economic censuses, which spatially identified the subcenters of total, manufacturing and tertiary employment in the periods 1993, 2004, 2009 and 2014. On the other hand, a two-stage data survey was conducted throughout the city by means of origin-destination surveys, which showed, from a macro scale, mobility patterns in terms of time, distance, origins, destinations, number of trips, transportation preferences, motives, ages and economic costs. At a micro scale, graph theory and network analysis allowed spatial modeling of each intra-urban trip, the results of which are detailed in a Mobility Atlas that includes each of the 64 territorial units into which the city was divided. The research proposes a replicable methodology and provides relevant and current information about the city, useful for other studies, decision making and public policies on urban structuring and mobility.
