Overview
- Transport companies staged a one-day work stoppage with motor shutdowns, marches and caravans, leading to localized blockages, scarce buses and fare hikes in districts such as Ventanilla, Puente Piedra and San Juan de Lurigancho.
- The ATU reported 100% operation of the Metropolitano, complementary corridors and Metro Lines 1 and 2, though some routes were adjusted and stations saw long queues during the morning peak.
- Education and labor authorities activated contingencies, shifting public school classes to remote learning for the day and granting a two-hour arrival tolerance with a call to prioritize telework.
- The Interior Ministry deployed police across key corridors and offered 21 institutional buses free to the public, while officers intervened in several caravans, including stopping El Rápido’s procession in Comas.
- Union leaders demanded concrete protection for drivers and economic support for families of those killed, warning of further actions if promises made in previous accords are not fulfilled.
