📋 Tender Overview
Update seeks to guarantee uniform technical criteria, strengthen road management and improve the quality of works throughout the country.With the purpose of promoting a uniform application of technical regulations and providing an updated tool for the formulation and execution of road projects, the Ministry of Transportation and Communications (MTC) approved the new version of the Glossary of Terms of Frequent Use in Road Infrastructure Projects.
The document was made official through Directorial Resolution No. 025-2025-MTC/18, issued by the General Directorate of Policies and Regulation in Multimodal Transport. This new edition brings together 689 terms, extracted and harmonized from the main regulations and manuals of the sector, such as the National Road Infrastructure Management Regulations, the Road Hierarchization Regulations, the Manual of Automotive Traffic Control Devices and the Highway Manuals.
In compliance with the Fourth Final Complementary Provision of the Road Hierarchy Regulation, the MTC comprehensively reviewed the previous glossary, which contained 403 terms. As a result, 29 definitions were clarified with their legal basis, 5 were removed due to duplicity or disuse, and 291 new terms were incorporated to adapt the document to current technical regulations.
Updating the glossary will ensure conceptual coherence in road projects carried out at the national level. In this way, operators, designers, supervisors and authorities will have an official and standardized reference source, reducing interpretation errors and strengthening the technical quality of the works.
Furthermore, this instrument will promote that road works--from their initial design to their construction, supervision and maintenance--are developed under homogeneous criteria, favoring efficiency in infrastructure management, road safety and the quality of the services offered to users of the national network.
The modernization of the glossary also contributes to strengthening technical transparency and regulatory interoperability, optimizing the planning and supervision processes of public and private investments in the transportation sector.
