Is there Pico y Placa in Quito tomorrow? Changes are in the afternoon

Quito's mobility will experience a unique dynamic on Tuesday, June 30, 2026, as the Metropolitan Transit Agency (AMT) announced a special provision for the "Pico y Placa" vehicle restriction. This adjustment is being made to accommodate the World Cup match between the Ecuadorian and Mexican national teams.

It is important for citizens to understand that the "Pico y Placa" restriction will not be entirely suspended. The morning restriction will remain in force as usual, applying strictly from 06:00 to 09:30. This measure targets vehicles whose license plates end with the digits 3 and 4, consistent with the regular Tuesday schedule.

The vehicle restriction "Pico y Placa" is suspended this Tuesday, June 30, from 16:00 to 20:00.

However, a significant flexibilization will occur in the afternoon. The "Pico y Placa" restriction will be lifted exclusively between 16:00 and 20:00. This suspension aims to ease traffic flow for individuals heading to watch the match or returning home afterward.

The AMT emphasized that this afternoon suspension is a specific exception and should not be interpreted as a permanent change to the "Pico y Placa" program. Traffic agents will conduct operations at key intersections and access points during the morning hours to ensure compliance with the ongoing restriction.
