The literature shows that the gap in road infrastructure can represent a limitation to economic growth, especially at the regional level. This article analyzes the technical efficiency of the road infrastructure in the 24 regions of Peru for the period between 2007-2018. The methodology consists of two stages. The first one aims to determine an index that collects the efficiency of public spending on road infrastructure, based on the Stochastic Efficiency Analysis. For the construction of the efficiency index, the following are identified as outputs: (i) Total National Length, (ii) Total Departmental Length and (iii) Total District Length. The main input used was spending on regional road infrastructure. The results suggest that higher spending at the regional level does not imply an improvement of the roads. There are regions with a lower amount earmarked for public spending on road infrastructure, but that have a better performance in execution. In the second stage, we seek to associate this efficiency indicator with the growth of economic activities at the regional level, through the application of Generalized Least Squares. The dependent variable was the domestic product and the explanatory variables are made up of variables such as the efficiency index, electricity consumption, hectares worked, educated EAP, mobile service lines, among others. The results confirm that the efficiency index largely explains the growth of economic activities.
