📋 Tender Overview
Last year, the sector completed modular bridges, a third lane and U-turns on Morales Duarez Avenue to ensure efficient transit to the terminal.On March 30 of this year, the new Jorge Chavez International Airport will begin operations. To ensure safe and efficient access to this modern air terminal, the Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC) has completed several key interventions on Morales Duarez Avenue in Callao, the road through which the air complex will be accessed.
In August of last year, the MTC completed the installation of two modular bridges at the intersection of Morales Duarez and Nuevo Aeropuerto avenues, intended to facilitate entry and exit from the terminal. Each bridge measures 81.9 meters in length, has two lanes and can support up to 45 tons.
To improve vehicular flow on Morales Duarez Avenue, U-turns were optimized at the intersections with Santa Rosa and Quilca avenues, and a third exclusive lane was enabled on the road, which will allow for more agile and orderly traffic.
Likewise, since December 1, 2024, a total of 124 members of the Peruvian National Police (PNP) have been deployed in three shifts to ensure security and traffic control in the strategic areas around the new airport, including Morales Duarez, Elmer Faucett, Santa Rosa avenues and their adjacent areas.
Other ongoing interventions
Since December 26, 2024, the MTC has been carrying out recycling and resurfacing work on 4.2 kilometers of Morales Duarez Avenue, between Tupac Amaru Avenue and Santa Rosa Avenue.
Between Tupac Amaru Avenue and Elmer Faucett Avenue, milling and asphalt paving work is being carried out; while between Elmer Faucett and Santa Rosa avenues, recycling and new asphalt paving work is being carried out.
Recycling involves rehabilitating the road using materials from the existing pavement, while resurfacing includes the application of a new asphalt layer. These improvements represent an investment of S/13.8 million. Once these works are completed, vertical and horizontal signage will be installed.
Additionally, progress is being made in enabling more U-turns on Morales Duarez Avenue, one at the height of Jiron Jorge Chavez and another before reaching Elmer Faucett Avenue from west to east, as well as with traffic lights in the access area to the airport.
The Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC) will continue working hard to complete these last complementary interventions to guarantee optimal and safe access to the new Jorge Chavez International Airport.
