Overview
- A Pachacámac court ordered the immediate suspension of toll charging at the Villa and Punta Negra booths operated by Rutas de Lima, with coercive fines for noncompliance.
- The ruling partially upheld a petition filed by the Santa María del Mar district, which argued the collections violated freedom of movement.
- The court clarified it is addressing constitutional rights rather than ruling on the concession’s validity, and the company may appeal.
- Earlier judicial action had already stopped collections at the Conchán toll, extending a pattern of suspensions on the Panamericana Sur corridor.
- Rutas de Lima has initiated dissolution and liquidation after reporting revenue losses exceeding 60% from prior suspensions, while stating it continues operating the concessioned roads.
