📋 Tender Overview
Measure seeks to reduce travel times. There are 9 bus stops enabled by the ATU for people who visit Mesa Redonda and Mercado Central.Given the implementation of segregated lanes on Abancay Avenue with the aim of ordering the road and reducing travel times for public transport users, the Urban Transport Authority for Lima and Callao (ATU), an entity attached to the Ministry of Transport and Communications, recalls that there are authorized taxi stops on the roads adjacent to this important artery in the Center of Lima.
People who go to areas with high commercial traffic such as Mesa Redonda and the Central Market have enabled spaces that allow orderly access to the taxi service, without invading the exclusive lanes intended for public transport. It should be noted that these lanes are for exclusive use for 23 regular public transport routes and four Purple Corridor services.
The taxi stops are located in block 6 of the Huallaga jiron, block 6 of the Andahuaylas jiron, block 6 of the Ucayali jiron (at the height of the Central Market), blocks 7 and 8 of the Ayacucho jiron, as well as three stops in block 4 of the Cusco jiron and one in block 5 of the same jiron. All these points have the corresponding vertical and horizontal signage. Ver mapa
These spaces provide users with direct and safe access to authorized taxis, located on the roads transversal to Abancay Avenue, thus promoting adequate integration between the taxi service and regular public transportation by bus, and contributing to the ordering and efficiency of the urban mobility system.
The Abancay bus lane is applied in the section between Jiron Amazonas Avenue and Nicolas de Pierola Avenue, without modifying the road geometry and includes signaling, operational management and inspection actions, so that public transport users can save between 10 and 15 minutes in their travel time.
In the white march stage, awareness and orientation for drivers will be prioritized, with the presence of ATU personnel on the road.
With these actions, the ATU reaffirms its commitment to promoting more orderly, efficient and safe public transportation, prioritizing the movement of thousands of users who travel through the center of Lima daily.
