Mexico City's New Cable Car Line: Connecting Communities, Improving Lives

Mexico City's New Cable Car Line: A Ride Towards Progress Mexico City recently inaugurated Line 6 of its Cablebús system, a significant addition to the city's public transportation network. This 12.3-kilometer line connects the often-isolated boroughs of Tláhuac and Milpa Alta, promising improved mobility and access to essential services for an estimated 80,000 to 90,000 daily riders. "This new line is more than just transportation; it's about connecting communities and improving lives," said a city official involved in the project. The project also addresses social issues. In San Juan Ixtayopan, a new police module is under construction to enhance security in the area, reflecting the city's commitment to addressing multiple challenges concurrently. The Cablebús Line 6 offers a cost-effective and efficient alternative to traditional transportation, costing only 7 pesos per ride. With a travel time of 40-45 minutes, it provides a scenic and sustainable mode of transport across challenging terrain. Its success underscores the potential of innovative solutions to improve urban mobility and address social inequalities.
