What is the Traffic Management Plan for these interventions?

To minimize the impact during the construction process on the usual conditions of mobility and pedestrian, vehicular, and cyclist movements, roads will be temporarily closed, and temporary changes will be made according to the Traffic Management Plan approved by the Mobility Secretariat. The contractor will notify in advance about the changes to facilitate mobility in the area.

The demolition process will be gradual, with the first properties scheduled to finish by July 9, 2024, or until the last property of the Altamira or La Gloria facility nodes is demolished, depending on the delivery made by the IDU, the entity in charge of acquisition.
