ATU Opens First Stretch of Pink Bus Lane Linking Lima and Callao

ATU is phasing in the Tomás Valle corridor with enforcement to speed up bus service.

Overview

  • The initial operational segment runs between Av. Elmer Faucett and Angélica Gamarra in Callao, with 12 marked stops now in use.
  • The exclusive lane will extend 6.1 km along Av. Tomás Valle from Faucett to Av. Túpac Amaru in Independencia, crossing Los Olivos and San Martín de Porres.
  • ATU says the remaining sections will be enabled progressively with full operation targeted before the end of March.
  • Only authorized public buses and formal taxis may use the lane, which is identified by a blue pavement strip, vertical signage, and physical segregators.
  • The corridor serves 57 authorized routes and is the first in a planned network of eight similar lanes connecting key axes of Lima and Callao.
