- Uno de los grandes problemas actuales de la ciudad de Lima es el relativo al transporte público. Esta situación ha llevado a la construcción, por parte de las autoridades municipales, de viaductos, puentes, intercambios viales, vías expresas y pasos a desnivel como fórmula para solucionar los constantes congestionamientos. Es por ello que se empezaron a desarrollar sistemas de transporte públicos y privados como es el caso del Metro de Lima cuyo objetivo es convertirse en el eje vertebral del transporte en la ciudad además de mejorar la seguridad y calidad del servicio de transporte en Lima, así también el Sistema Metropolitano de Transporte el cual debe funcionar como sistema secundario y de soporte con sus alimentadores de la red principal del metro, además de la construcción de ciclovías en Lima Metropolitana y el nuevo Sistema Integrado de Transporte de Lima.

- Public transport in Lima is handled by buses, micros, taxicabs, and the so-called mototaxis. Micros are the most common means of public transportation in Lima and many other cities in Peru. There are also more than 100 kilometres (62 mi) of cycle paths in the city. The word micro is used in common-day Peruvian Spanish as an abbreviation for microbus (minibus). While the bigger vehicles are known as micros, the smaller ones are known as either combis or micros. These privately owned vehicles are not only known for being very cheap and convenient but also for being rather risky. Micros race from one street corner to another along all the major arterial city roads. Stickers saying, for example, "Todo Angamos" or "Todo Benavides" can be seen on their windscreens, which indicates that the micro runs the whole length of Avenida Angamos or Avenida Alfredo Benavides. These microbuses dash dangerously fast, frequently crashing and speeding off before their passengers have got both feet into the vehicle. There being few bus stops, micros and combis pick and drop passengers anywhere along their route (although it is not allowed). Tickets became compulsory in the late-80s. No transfer tickets are issued, so double fares are often used by people when a micro passing through downtown does not go to the destination needed, although with the lack of control of routes nowadays there are many routes that go just about everywhere within the city limits. The only places where micros are no longer allowed to circulate is in the crosstown streets within downtown Lima: if you need to go from the West Side to the East Side you must walk or take a taxi (see below), and micros go north-south only through either the West or East sides' main arteries, Tacna Ave. and Abancay Ave. respectively. Nowadays, the new Metropolitano bus rapid transit system and the first line of the Lima Metro attempt to modernize the way. (en)
