Resumen:

Mexico City subway started operating in 1961 and actually it is considered the public transport preferred by citizens with an annual ridership of 1.6 billion in 2015. The subway network is geographically located in the seismic areas of high risk in Mexico City. In fact, the subway Line 1 transports users to strategic points from East to West such as workplaces, touristic areas and the Mexico City downtown. The aim of this paper is to develop a simulation model of PINO SUAREZ subway station to optimize the number of passengers evacuating PINO SUAREZ subway station. We implement the simulation model using AnyLogicTM software and it is validated via a sensitivity analysis. We maximize the number of passengers evacuating PINO SUAREZ subway station at the busy hours in a seismic situation. From our results, we conclude that is important for subway authorities to strong the security measures and open new emergency exits.
