Arequipa urban and infrastructure development

Overview

In Arequipa, regional and municipal authorities have initiated large-scale urban planning and infrastructure projects. A tripartite agreement was signed between the Regional Government of Arequipa, the Ministry of Housing, Construction and Sanitation, and the Provincial Municipality of Arequipa to develop the New City of Siguas. This project intends to manage population growth across 4,300 hectares by providing housing for 300,000 homes and integrating essential services.

Simultaneously, local infrastructure efforts in the Yura district face administrative delays. A S/ 29.7 million water and sewage project for the PROFAM settlement is currently stalled in the Provincial Municipality of Arequipa. Despite resident protests, municipal councilors have raised technical observations, leaving the project in a prioritization stage that risks being restarted if not approved before the current administration ends.
