This year, the people of Chilangos gave the premiere to two Cablebus Lines, several parks that were remodeled —such as Cuemanco and Cuitláhuac -, and we enjoyed new attractions such as IztapaSauria. For this reason, we are already thinking about the 2022 projects for CDMX.
During her third government report, Claudia Sheinbaum announced 31 actions that will be launched next year in CDMX.
Among the plans, several mobility projects stand out, but also others to boost the economy and tourism.
There are even several plans that will give the city a new look, since the construction of a new Cablebús Line, a solar plant in the Central de Abastos, and the inauguration (now) of the Yankuic Museum in Iztapalapa is planned.
There are also other works that began to be built in previous years and will finally see the light in 2022.
This is the case of the Elevated Trolleybus, which was planned to open last November, but due to delays in the delivery of the material, it is expected to be ready by the second half of next year.
The orange limousine won’t be far behind, either.
Several projects are planned to renovate the Metro. This includes the installation of the new Control Center, the closing and remodeling of Line 1 and the completion of the rehabilitation works of Line 12.
