Mexico City, Mexico. The government of Mexico City has unveiled a package of infrastructure projects aimed at improving mobility, public spaces, and markets in the Coyoacán and Tlalpan areas. These initiatives, launched ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, are designed to enhance the quality of life for both residents and visitors. With an investment exceeding 200 million pesos, over 10 permanent projects have been completed. Key projects include the renovation of Parque Alegría Tecuiche, which now features walking paths, children's play areas, and exercise zones. Near the Banorte Stadium, a pedestrian bridge was refurbished with new lighting, handrails, and elevators to ensure universal accessibility. Additionally, a drainage system and a rain garden have been completed. Public markets such as Plaza Mexicana del Sur and Mercado de Comida de Huipulco have been upgraded, with elevators installed to improve accessibility. Road infrastructure has also seen significant improvements, with 10 km of repaving and 34 km of road renewal on Calzada de Tlalpan. According to Head of Government Clara Brugada, these changes will allow Mexico City to welcome the world while also improving the daily lives of its citizens. For the stadium's reopening, a special mobility operation will be implemented to manage traffic, enhance public transport, and prohibit private vehicle parking on match days.
