📋 Tender Overview
Works are part of the compensation works for the construction of the San Marcos Station of Line 2 of the Lima and Callao Metro.The Urban Transportation Authority for Lima and Callao (ATU), attached to the Ministry of Transportation and Communications (MTC), together with the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos (UNMSM), put into operation two remodeled porticos in this study house.
In addition, the ATU received the land intended for the construction of a new university residence. These interventions were carried out within the framework of the compensation agreement linked to the construction of the San Marcos Station and the ventilation shafts of Line 2 of the Lima Metro.
With the San Marcos station, students will not only be able to arrive earlier, but also leave later safely, since they will have a public transportation line that will integrate them into the city network, as part of an integrated transportation system, said the executive president of the ATU, David Hernandez.
Meanwhile, the Vice Minister of Transportation, Juan Haro, highlighted the articulated work that the ATU and the UNMSM have carried out to make this infrastructure a reality that benefits the San Marcos community and contributes to the continuity of Line 2 of the Lima Metro, a work for citizens in general.
The remodeling includes portico 2 and the emblematic door 3, located on Amezaga Avenue. Its improvements include exclusive entrances and exits for ambulances, access for people with disabilities, electronic turnstiles, security booths, parking areas and green areas, among other aspects that will allow a safer, orderly and more functional entrance to the university campus. These works will benefit more than 40 thousand students.

The new university residence includes a design made up of two blocks differentiated by gender, each with 10 floors and a basement, with the capacity to house 745 students, mainly from the interior of the country.

The university residence will have a nursery with capacity for 50 children and a nursing area, reinforcing the focus on inclusion and support for university families. The construction of this work is expected to begin in 2026, according to Vice Minister Haro.
