Coyoacán Rolls Out QR Vehicle Permits for World Cup Matchdays Near Estadio Azteca

The plan aims to cut game-day traffic to keep nearby streets clear for residents.

Overview

  • Local officials have begun a house‑to‑house vehicle census to accredit residents who can drive inside a restricted zone on days when the stadium hosts World Cup games.
  • Access controls will start five hours before kickoff and end two hours after, and only accredited residents and emergency or official vehicles will be allowed in.
  • The controlled area spans the “first mile” around the venue, bounded by Calzada de Tlalpan, Periférico Sur, Gran Sur and Santa Úrsula, covering nearby colonias in full or in part.
  • Residents must provide make, model, color, plates and proof of address to receive a non‑transferable QR pass, with in‑person sign‑ups also available at the CASU module from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
  • Authorities report about 15,000 vehicles registered so far, and neighbors, including those near hospitals, are seeking clarity on how deliveries, ride‑hail and waiting areas will work during control windows.
