The curriculum includes Korea’s road traffic policies, smart construction technologies based on AI and BIM, and AI application technologies for expressways. Trainees will also visit advanced transport infrastructure sites, including the Smart Construction Integrated Control Center and the K-City research complex, to see Korea’s technological capabilities firsthand.
A special session will also be held to support the overseas expansion of outstanding domestic small and medium-sized enterprises. Participating companies are set to introduce their proprietary smart road management technologies to the Peruvian side, including an AI warning system for slopes, pavement detection systems, and overloaded vehicle enforcement systems.
The Korea Expressway Corporation previously carried out the “Smart Road Management Master Plan” project in on July 2024 to introduce traffic management technology to Peru’s major arterial roads. In on June 2026, it plans to pursue the “Feasibility Study for the Establishment of Smart ITS on the Lima-Chancay Section in Peru” project.
A Korea Expressway Corporation official said, “We believe Korea’s expressway operation experience and technological capabilities will make a substantial contribution to raising the level of Peru’s road infrastructure,” adding, “We hope this training will strengthen cooperation with Central and South American countries and serve as an opportunity for domestic companies to take a leap forward in the field of AI-based digital road management.”
