📋 Tender Overview
This measure seeks to reduce travel times and organize public transport in key axes of high demand.The Ministry of Transportation and Communications (MTC), through the Urban Transportation Authority for Lima and Callao (ATU), launched the first stage of the so-called Pink Bus Lane in Callao, which will improve the transportation of thousands of users who move daily between Lima and the first port, through a more orderly, faster and efficient system.
The initial implementation of the Pink Bus Lane, already in operation, includes the section of Tomas Valle Avenue between Elmer Faucett and Angelica Gamarra Avenues, between Callao and San Martin de Porres, and will be extended in the coming days to Tupac Amaru Avenue, in Independencia.
Only authorized vehicles - buses, buses, vans and taxis - will be able to circulate on this exclusive route, while bus traffic is restricted, within the framework of a strategy to organize the service and improve the fluidity of public transport on high-demand axes.
In the coming weeks, the same will be done with the exclusive corridor on the Avenida Venezuela - Miguel Grau - Saenz Pena axis, which would reduce travel times and facilitate access to areas of high demand, such as markets, shopping centers and other key institutions in Callao.
According to the MTC, the initiative contemplates the progressive implementation of eight corridors by 2030, which together will add 62.8 kilometers of exclusive lanes, aimed at increasing the speed of service, reducing travel times and optimizing traffic on strategic roads that connect both jurisdictions.
In addition, this operational measure contemplates a future integration with systems such as the Metropolitan and Line 2 of the Lima and Callao Metro, as well as the future Line 4, proposing an interconnected transportation model that seeks to improve the travel experience of citizens.
With this initiative, the MTC reaffirms its commitment to a comprehensive policy to modernize urban transportation and consolidate a more orderly, efficient and sustainable public transportation system, where the user is the center of the decisions.
