Arequipa Avenue (Spanish: Avenida Arequipa), formerly known as Leguía Avenue (Spanish: Avenida Leguía), is one of the main avenues of Lima, Peru. It extends from north to south in the districts of Lima, Lince, San Isidro and Miraflores along 52 blocks. It has a bike path located along its entire central berm.[1]

Before the implementation of the SIT, the avenue was the seventh most congested road in Lima due to the excessive circulation of public transport units.[2]
