The present study proposes, in the first part, the descriptive review of the four approaches in the transport sector and their strategies to generate solutions present in the planning of intermediate cities. Likewise, the process of changing the views and models of the city of Arequipa is recognized, through the qualitative analysis of the approach of the transport sector of the two master plans executed in the last 15 years with significant impact for the relationship.The first plan analyzed (2002-2015) was oriented to the consolidation of the central area, two centralities in the north and south, and five functional units articulated by a longitudinal road system from north to south, a road ring and a complementary arterial mesh. The second master plan (2016-2025) constitutes the deconcentration of the central area, the consolidation of two secondary centers (north and south), and six tertiary centers articulated by main, secondary corridors and ring roads. In this way, an urban structure is marked that considers articulating centralities and diverse agglomerations of dispersed houses in their peripheral expansion.In the second part of the study, a quantitative and qualitative comparison is made between the public investment projects approved budgeted by the Ministry of Economy and Finance to the provincial government of Arequipa, and its link with the proposals elaborated in the stated master plans that serve to checking the level of real execution in the construction of the city.The beginning of this methodology that links the evaluation of the approach in the transport sector in the master plans with the verification of the realization of public investment projects constitutes a tool in the process of control of the urban policies executed by the local governments in intermediate cities.
