📋 Tender Overview
With the support of the National Police, 616 operations were carried out. More than 40 of these interventions were carried out within the framework of the Transportation Supervision Committee.The Urban Transportation Authority for Lima and Callao (ATU), an entity attached to the Ministry of Transportation and Communications (MTC), has removed from circulation 6,080 vehicles that did not meet the requirements to provide public passenger transportation service, of which 92% operated informally.
These units represented a latent danger to citizens since they did not have qualifying titles or documents in order such as the Mandatory Insurance against Traffic Accidents (SOAT) or the Vehicle Technical Inspection Certificate (CITV). Furthermore, in several cases, the drivers did not have a license or were not accredited by the institution.
This result is due to the 3,501 regular operations and 616 high-impact operations carried out during 2025, which were developed with the support of the Traffic Police in points of high incidence of informality, analyzed thanks to the video surveillance of the cameras of the municipalities with which the entity maintains inter-institutional cooperation agreements.
In addition, 8,938 acceleration, detour and orientation operations were carried out, as well as 2,693 preventive actions that did not involve the internment of vehicles.
Oversight Committee
Of the total of these operations, more than 40 were carried out within the framework of the Transportation Supervision Committee, which is led by the MTC and which was launched since the beginning of the state of emergency, last Wednesday, October 22.
This committee is also made up of the PNP, the Superintendency of Land Transportation of People, Cargo and Goods (Sutran), Migrations, the National Superintendency for Control of Security Services, Weapons, Ammunition and Explosives for Civil Use (Sucamec), among others.
In these interventions, more than 520 units were sent to the depot that violated various infractions such as informality, undocumented drivers and units that not only lacked proper documentation, but also posed a danger to users.
With these actions, the ATU reaffirms its commitment to work in an articulated manner with the institutions that make up the aforementioned Oversight Committee to strengthen control, promote formalization and guarantee a safe and efficient public transportation system at the service of citizens.
