    The author is concerned with the effective behavior of the transport equation\break \(\partial_tu_\varepsilon+ a_\varepsilon(t,y) \partial_x u_\varepsilon=0\) when \(a_\varepsilon \rightharpoonup a\) in \(L^\infty\) weak\(^*\) and the Cauchy problem related to the equation with memory satisfied by a weak\(^*\) limit of the sequence of solutions. The memory term is represented by an averaging operator. The homogenized equation has a unique solution, established considering a kinetic formulation.
