The Costa Verde in Callao will be temporarily closed between Haya de la Torre and Chucuito avenues due to cleaning and maintenance work. This measure, which responds to the accumulation of stones and failures in signage, aims to ensure the safety of drivers and pedestrians. The closure will be implemented in both directions and will last for 48 hours. Callao Mayor César Pérez indicated that this section has been declared an emergency due to its hazardous conditions. The intervention will be carried out progressively, prioritizing critical areas to improve infrastructure and safety. According to Carlos Arana, spokesperson for the municipality, abnormal waves have exacerbated the risk by dragging materials onto the road. During this time, work will be conducted on the roadway, sidewalks, and bike lanes. Drivers are advised to use alternative routes such as La Paz, Sáenz Peña avenues, and exits to Loreto and Chucuito to avoid congestion. The restriction will be established just before the Easter holiday, raising concerns about traffic in the area. For more information on the impact of these measures, you can consult our note on the new central highway.
