Overview
- The province inaugurated the new Estación Mendoza smart parador at Belgrano and Juan B. Justo and reported progress on expansion works on Monday, using the event to show the system’s latest upgrades.
- Officials confirmed the Metrotranvía will be partially enabled to Parque Benegas in Godoy Cruz in October 2026 and said further partial openings will precede final completion.
- Provincial data put construction toward Luján de Cuyo and El Plumerillo airport at about 74% complete and projected the airport segment to open in 2027.
- The network now operates 20 paradores inteligentes that use electronic turnstiles for SUBE, bank cards or QR codes, automated access, perimeter fencing, LED lighting and continuous videomonitoring; officials report roughly a 20% rise in fare payments and lower evasion since rollout.
- The inauguration combined operational aims and political visibility as authorities positioned Estación Mendoza to become a multimodal transfer node linking Maipú, Godoy Cruz, Luján de Cuyo, the City, Las Heras and the airport with tighter security and faster passenger flows.
