In addition, it becomes especially relevant as important transportation infrastructure projects continue to advance in the area around the airport, including the Santa Rosa Expressway, the Santa Rosa Bridge and the interventions associated with Line 4 of the Lima and Callao Metro, which will progressively contribute to improving the connectivity and capacity of the sectors road network.
The provision contemplates exceptions for emergency vehicles and for units that transport personnel, merchandise, machinery and/or equipment intended for construction, liberation and/or enabling operations of land communication routes. Likewise, vehicles that provide services or carry out supply activities linked to the operation of the Jorge Chavez International Airport are exempt, in accordance with the coordination carried out with the National Police of Peru (PNP).

Additionally, PROVIAS NACIONAL will implement the corresponding signage and control devices, in addition to publishing alternative routes for restricted vehicles through its institutional portal.
