Overview
- A Thursday agreement between the Mexico City Metro and State of Mexico authorities calls for coordinated removal of informal stalls from eight Line B stations in Ecatepec.
- Vendor leaders agreed to pull stands from train platforms and to move into areas that do not block passengers, though no detailed schedule for the transition was released.
- The stations named are Ciudad Azteca, Plaza Aragón, Olímpica, Ecatepec, Múzquiz, Río de los Remedios, Impulsora and Nezahualcóyotl.
- Officials said the change targets crowded boarding zones used by about 190,000 riders each day on this stretch, reducing bottlenecks and lowering civil protection risks in an emergency.
- Metro director Adrián Rubalcava led the talks in Ciudad Azteca with state official Amellali Caballero and vendor leaders including Julio Pérez Ruíz, citing instructions from CDMX leader Clara Brugada and State of Mexico governor Delfina Gómez.
