Integrated with the Lima-Callao region’s existing public transport network, line 2 will create a major corridor that will improve the accessibility of jobs, services, and markets for 2.3 million people and provide a backbone for more efficient urban development. Beyond the investment loan, this co-financed project is an outgrowth of a long term metropolitan transport strategy and multifaceted engagement that is aligned with the World Bank’s goals of reducing poverty and boosting shared prosperity through sustainable development. It will give a boost to the competitiveness of the entire Lima-Callao Metropolitan Region, which has a population of more than 9 million and constitutes more than one-third of the national economy.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOURBAN TRANSPORTPERIPHERAL AREASBUSTRANSPORT NETWORKTRANSPORT SECTORTRAVELTRANSPORTATIONITSURBANIZATIONTRANSITPOLICIESAIRPORTPASSENGERSPUBLIC TRANSPORT NETWORKINCOMEINTERNATIONAL AIRPORTTRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTUREVEHICLESRAPID TRANSITRAPID TRANSIT SYSTEMTRAINSACCESSIBILITYTRANSPORT REFORMSURFACE TRANSPORTMASS TRANSITMAINTENANCEPUBLIC TRANSPORT USERSPUBLIC TRANSPORTMASS TRANSIT SYSTEMTRANSPORT USERSAIRPUBLIC TRANSPORT MODESTRANSPORT MODESDISABILITIESPUBLIC TRANSPORT TRIPSCOSTSAIR POLLUTIONRIDERSHIPTRANSPORTTRANSIT CORRIDORRAILTRANSPORT STRATEGYFARE POLICIESFEEDER SERVICESMETRO LINEMOBILITYTRANSPORT SYSTEMINVESTMENTSTRIPSPASSENGERS PER DAYMETROPOLITAN TRANSPORTPOLLUTIONMETROPOLITAN TRANSPORT STRATEGYNOISETRAVEL TIMEJOB CENTERSMODAL INTEGRATIONTRANSIT FAREINFRASTRUCTURETRANSIT SYSTEMLAND USEBriefWorld Bank10.1596/25004
