IMPLEMENTACIÓN DE LA SEMANA DE LA MOTOCICLETA

• El objetivo es culminar con los registros iniciales y hacer la entrega de los documentos pertinentes

 El Gobierno Departamental, a través de la Secretaría de Movilidad, busca implementar la estrategia denominada “Semana de la Motocicleta”, que consiste en unir todos los esfuerzos del Área de Trámites para atender durante una semana cada mes, solo el trámite de Registro Inicial de vehículos tipo motocicletas.

Esto se debe a que, en el territorio insular, hay aproximadamente 5000 mil motocicletas sin poder finalizar el trámite, por tanto, circulan en la isla sin su respectiva placa de identificación y sin la tarjeta de propiedad del vehículo.

El objetivo es culminar con los registros iniciales y hacer la entrega de los documentos pertinentes, teniendo en cuenta que, a partir del 1 de Julio del presente año, se estará exigiendo el uso del casco obligatorio reglamentado por la norma técnica colombiana NTC 4533 de 2017.

Por tanto, esta actividad de la Secretaría de Movilidad cumple dos objetivos importantes: que todos los vehículos tipo motocicleta circulen en el departamento con su respectiva placa y que circulen con el casco reglamentario debidamente identificado.

Para agilizar las gestiones del Área de Trámites las fechas de la implementación de la Semana de la Motocicleta son:

• Abril 22 al 26 de 2019

• Mayo 13 al 17 de 2019

• Junio 21 y del 25 al 28 de 2019

Los usuarios que todavía no han podido terminar este trámite, deben acercarse a la oficina de tránsito en el tercer piso del Edificio Coral Palace, en su horario habitual de 8:00am a 11:00am y de 2:00pm a 5:00pm.

El jueves 25 de Abril, tendremos una importante capacitacióbn para todas las mujeres del Archipiélago en pro de la participación en Política Pública Departamental.
