📋 Tender Overview
The entity received the award in the category Monitoring Compliance with the Law and will compete in the Award for Good Practices in Public Management, organized by Ciudadanos al Dia (CAD).The Urban Transport Authority for Lima and Callao, an entity attached to the Ministry of Transport and Communications, continues to obtain recognition. This time, it achieved the certification of Good Practice in Public Management, in the category Supervision of compliance with the Law, thanks to the implementation of its strategy Supervision through electronic means.
This initiative was created with the purpose of carrying out supervision actions in the public land transportation service of people through electronic means, such as video surveillance cameras, drones and other similar means that detect infractions on the roads of Lima and Callao. With this certification, the ATU competes in the twentieth edition of the Award for Good Practices in Public Management, organized by Ciudadanos al Dia (CAD) and whose award ceremony will take place on October 17. Since its implementation in 2023, the ATUs electronic inspection system has allowed the detection of a total of 27,919 violations of urban transport regulations in different districts, with whose municipalities cooperation agreements have been established.
These are the municipalities of Lima, Jesus Maria, La Molina, Magdalena del Mar, Pachacamac, San Juan de Lurigancho, San Borja, San Miguel, Santa Anita and Santiago de Surco. The entity also has an agreement with Lima Airport Partners (LAP), the company that operates the Jorge Chavez airport, and with the concessionaire company Lima Expresa, whose cameras are located at various points on the Via de Evitamiento.
It is important to highlight that inspection through electronic means has become an effective tool to combat informality, since it allows for greater scope in supervision tasks and reduces costs for the administrative authority. In this sense, this initiative can be replicated at a regional level, and the ATU is willing to offer technical advice and training to local governments to implement this strategy.
Electronic inspection also allows reducing corruption rates, since by minimizing direct human intervention with administrators in the detection of infractions, the possibility of falling into illicit acts or favoritism is reduced. The ATU reaffirms its commitment to continue working for safe, efficient and formal transportation for the benefit of citizens.
