Rehabilitation L3 and LA of the Metro
With 5,000 million pesos labeled, in 2026 it is planned to begin the intervention of Metro Line 3 that crosses the city from Indios Verdes to Universidad and is the second most used in the system, with around 472,000 daily trips.
The Head of Government, Clara Brugada, has indicated that there is already a master plan for this intervention, but its presentation is still pending. However, he indicated that in the first half of the year there will be no suspension of the service, since the first stage will be planning and diagnosis work.
“There will be no works that imply suspending the Metro service for the first part of the year,” he said at a press conference on November 18.
The first intervention of a similar magnitude was carried out on Line 1 of the Metro, the oldest in the system with 56 years in some sections, which from start to finish took three years and four months of work with the staggered reopening of certain stations to open the last section in November 2025, when it was originally announced that the renovation would be complete in March 2023.
A second rehabilitation is that of Line A from Pantitlán to La Paz, which connects Mexico City with the State of Mexico to the east. This will be carried out with federal resources.
Despite not being one of the oldest lines (it was inaugurated in 1991), it has been affected by subsidence in the area as it runs on the Calzada Ignacio Zaragoza.
One more pending issue for the Metro is the expansion of Line 12, to connect Mixcoac with Observatorio, which is expected to be completed by 2027 according to the Secretariat of Works and Services (Sobse), however it is a work that has been dragging on for 10 years, during the administrations of Miguel Ángel Mancera, Claudia Sheinbaum and now with Clara Brugada in the city.
