Airport Toll Restored at Caseta Guadalupe, Heavy Queues Reported on Day One

Long queues followed the toll’s return, with several new lanes still lacking card-payment systems.

Overview

  • The Red Estatal de Autopistas reactivated toll collection on January 4 at the airport lanes of Caseta Guadalupe and urged users to verify their TAG or payment method, offering the helpline 800 007 3265.
  • Drivers on January 5 reported waits of up to 25 minutes, with some fearing they would miss flights at Monterrey International Airport.
  • Published 2026 rates are 60 pesos for cars and light vehicles, 35 pesos for motorcycles, 119 pesos for buses, and around 400 pesos for heavy cargo vehicles depending on dimensions.
  • Authorities expanded the toll plaza from 10 to 20 booths, but several newly opened lanes currently accept only cash or telepeaje, contributing to delays.
  • The toll had been suspended in October to ease congestion on Avenida Miguel Alemán during Metro Line 6 construction, which officials say is showing significant progress toward the Meta FIFA milestone.
