    The Ordinance that punishes the Territorial ordering Plan of canton Cuenca, existing since 2003, determines the non-developable land in the area of influence close to the city because some factors, one of them is the natural value possessing five well-defined areas called Areas of Natural Protection (ZPN), in these areas is restricted all activity involving the artificialization of land, banning also their fractionation. However, so far are vulnerable by urban growth because there is no any plan that defines their management. Under that circumstance, we applied the methodology proposed by Dr. Domingo Gómez Orea to the elaboration of the Territorial ordering Plan used in three of the five ZPN peri-urban areas: Loma de Huizhil, Cerro Monjas, Agua Santa and the area of close influence - the micro-watershed of the Tarqui river- common to the three territories, the same that is characterized by harmonize activities and human aspirations with the reception capacity of each territory.

Likewise, we have analyzed successful cases of traffic management systems developed in cities of the world heritage in order to find solutions transferable and that they can be adapted to the context of Cuenca, one of the two cities patrimony of the humanity of the Ecuador.
