Problems in the Mexico City Metro

On Tuesday, January 28, 2025, problems have been reported on several lines of the Metro Collective Transportation System (STC) in Mexico City. The most critical situation is observed on Line 3 (Green), which has been experiencing overcrowding since early hours, especially in the segment from Indios Verdes to Universidad. Users report delays in the departure of trains and high influx at the stations.

On the other hand, Line 1 is experiencing a high demand of passengers at several stations due to the slow progress of the trains. Despite not reporting breakdowns, the waiting time exceeds ten minutes in some cases. Similarly, Line A is experiencing overcrowding at certain stations, with waiting times exceeding seven minutes. Users are advised to take precautions when planning their trips.

Regarding the rest of the lines, variations in demand and functioning are observed. Line B shows high demand with waiting times of more than five minutes, Line 6 experiences low demand, and Line 4 operates normally with little influx. Line 5, on the other hand, shows maximum demand due to problems on the tracks, causing prolonged waits.

For Line 7, users are advised to seek alternative transportation due to overcrowding and poor functioning of the metro. Meanwhile, Line 8 maintains a continuous flow of trains without breakdowns, although there are alerts regarding issues due to the lack of sufficient units. In contrast, Line 9 and Line 12 exhibit high passenger demand but with a smooth functioning of train operations.

In summary, on this Tuesday, users of the Mexico City Metro are advised to stay alert to the conditions of the different lines, take precautions in the face of possible delays, and consider alternatives in case of overcrowding or poor functioning of the system.
