You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

This article describes the '''transport in [[Peru]]'''.

==Railways==
[[File:Railways in Peru.svg|thumb|350px|((center|Railways in Peru ((nowrap|([[ShareMap:public/Railways in Peru|interactive map]])))))]]
'''total: ''' 2,374&nbsp;km<br/>
'''standard gauge: ''' 1,608&nbsp;km, ((RailGauge|ussg|lk=on)) gauge <br/>
'''narrow gauge: ''' 380&nbsp;km, ((RailGauge|3ft|lk=on)) gauge

((main|Rail transport in Peru))
There are two unconnected principal railways in Peru.

The '''[[Ferrocarril Central Andino]]''' (FCCA; the former Ferrocarril Central del Perú) runs inland from [[Callao]] and [[Lima]] across the [[Andes]] watershed to [[La Oroya]] and [[Huancayo]]. It is the second highest railway in the world (following opening of the [[Qingzang railway]] in Tibet), with the Galera summit tunnel under Mount Meiggs at ((convert|4783|m|ft|abbr=on)) and [[Galera railway station|Galera station]] at ((convert|4777|m|ft|abbr=on)) above sea level. In 1955 the railway opened a spur line from La Cima on the [[Morococha District|Morococha]] branch (((convert|4818|m|ft|abbr=on)) above sea level) to Volcán Mine, reaching an (at the time) world record altitude of ((convert|4830|m|ft|abbr=on)). Both branch and spur have since closed to traffic.<ref>((Marshall-GuinnessRail))</ref>((Page needed|date=October 2016)) From Huancayo the route is extended by the [[Ferrocarril Huancayo - Huancavelica]]. In July 2006 FCCA began work to [[Track gauge conversion|regauge]] the [[Huancavelica]] line from ((Track gauge|914mm|lk=on)) to ((Track gauge|1435mm|allk=on)) and it was finished in 2010. There was also a proposal for a 21&nbsp;km tunnel under the Andes.<ref>((cite magazine|title=Huancavelica upgrade|magazine=[[Railway Gazette International]]|date=2006-06-01|url=http://www.railwaygazette.com/news_view/article/2006/06/3802/huancavelica_upgrade.html))</ref>

The '''Ferrocarriles del Sur del Perú''' (FCS), now operated by [[PeruRail]], runs from the coast at [[Matarani]] to [[Cusco|Cuzco]], and to [[Puno]] on [[Lake Titicaca]]. From Cuzco, PeruRail runs the ((Track gauge|914mm|lk=on)) gauge line to [[Aguas Calientes, Peru|Aguas Calientes]] for [[Machu Picchu]].<ref name="Whetham 2">((cite book|author=Whetham, Robert D.|title=Railways of Peru.

===Metro===
[[File:Andén de Estación Villa El Salvador - Metro de Lima.jpg|thumb|A car in the Villa El Salvador station in Lima]]
[[Lima]] has a metro service or [[Lima Metro]], also called ''Tren eléctrico'' that has now only one line (called Linea 1). The line has an extension of 34.6&nbsp;km. with 26 stations, and goes from the south east to north east Lima urban districts passing downtown (This is ''Villa El Salvador'' to ''San Juan de Lurigancho''). The second line (called Linea 2) is now under construction and will run from the port of ''Callao'' to ''Ate'' passing downtown too (west to east).(2015).

[[Huancayo Metro]] is the second urban rail line in Peru, is located in the Andean city of [[Huancayo]] and is currently under construction (2012).

===Proposed===

* Mining railway to [[Port of Bayóvar|Bayovar]] port by 2019.  Also to [[Paita]] port.

The [[Pan-American Highway (South America)#Peru|Pan-American Highway]] runs the country from north to south next to the coast, from [[Tumbes (city)|Tumbes]] (Ecuadoran border) to [[Tacna]] (Chilean border). From [[Arequipa]] a branch goes to [[Puno]] and then to Bolivia. Other important [[highways in Peru]] are the ''Longitudinal de la Sierra'',<ref>((Cite web |last= |first= |title=Longitudinal de la Sierra llevará desarrollo y crecimiento económico |url=https://andina.pe/agencia/noticia-longitudinal-de-sierra-llevara-desarrollo-y-crecimiento-economico-543781.aspx |access-date=2022-11-03 |website=andina.pe |language=es))</ref> that goes from north to south in the highlands; and the ''Carretera Central'', that goes from [[Lima]] (in the coast) to [[Pucallpa]] (in the jungle).<ref>((Cite web |last= |first= |date=2022-10-17 |title=Carretera Central: ¿Cuál es la mejor ruta alterna para descongestionar esta vía? |url=https://elcomercio.pe/lima/transporte/carretera-central-cual-es-la-mejor-ruta-alterna-para-descongestionar-esta-via-mtc-colegio-de-ingenieros-del-peru-noticia-2/ |access-date=2022-11-03 |website=El Comercio Perú |language=es))</ref>

===Long distance buses===
Inter-city travel in Peru is almost exclusively done in long-distance buses. Buses in most of the cities depart from bus terminals called ''terminal terrestre''. The main bus companies which link Lima with the major cities include [[Cruz del Sur]] and [[Ormeño]]. Other companies are ''Civa'' and ''Oltursa''.<ref>((cite web| url = http://www.oltursa.pe/| title = Oltursa))</ref>
