📋 Tender Overview
Important work is in its final stage and will soon open to vehicular trafficPromise fulfilled The expansion and construction of the last 3 km of the Ramiro Priale highway, the work of the Metropolitan Municipality of Lima (MML), enters its final stage. In the coming days, vehicular traffic will be opened, guaranteeing adequate traffic conditions, interconnecting 4 districts of eastern Lima and becoming an alternative route to the collapsed Central Highway, making trips faster and more effective.
With the comprehensive improvement of this high-traffic road with double lanes in both directions, led by the Municipal Company to Support Strategic Projects (Emape), a continuous route has been generated from Via Evitamiento to Lurigancho-Chosica, decongesting traffic, which will be even more optimal with the new Las Torres bypass that is already in the pre-operation phase.
In this way, the direct connection through the new Ramiro Priale highway becomes possible with the expansion of this final section, a work expected for more than four decades and which is the continuation of the 4 km that were enabled in June 2025, improving road safety for more than 2 million residents of eastern Lima.
The extension of these new 3 km was carried out in the section from Lateral Pesca Street to the Los Girasoles de Huampani bridge, benefiting not only Lurigancho-Chosica, but also the residents of Ate, Chaclacayo, and especially the areas of Carapongo, Nana, among others.
The work included the removal of 22,600 m3 of inadequate or unusable material, more than 6,268 m3 of asphalt in both lanes, in a total road width of 9.2 meters.
In addition, 12,000 meters of road guards were installed in both lanes, 48 vertical signs and horizontal signage by painting the axis and speed reduction symbols on the road, as well as the construction of 10 siphons, intended for adequate drainage and control of rainwater and a water pass, guaranteeing hydraulic continuity and protection of the road.
The work is in the completion stage in the Lateral Pesca and Los Girasoles section; However, the extension of half a kilometer will also be carried out, which will reach the Moron bridge, whose rehabilitation works the MML has been carrying out for a faster and safer route.
The expansion allows drivers to move in less time, decongesting the Central Highway and Main Avenue, where a large number of heavy-duty vehicles circulate.
