Peru Reinstates David Hernández to Lead ATU After Jaime Romero's Resignation

Supreme Resolutions signed by President José Enrique Jerí Oré formalized the move without offering an official explanation.

Overview

  • The Executive accepted Jaime Francisco Romero Bonilla's resignation through Supreme Resolution No. 017-2025-MTC.
  • David Augusto Hernández Salazar was appointed ATU board president by Supreme Resolution No. 018-2025-MTC following an MTC proposal published in El Peruano.
  • Hernández returns to a post he held earlier this year roughly three months after his removal during a July reorganization.
  • Under ATU rules, the board presidency carries the Executive Presidency, placing Hernández back in operational control of Lima and Callao's integrated transport system.
  • The change amounts to another rapid leadership turnover at the transport authority, with Hernández replacing Romero, who had led the agency since July 21.
