Mexico City Applies Regular Tuesday Hoy No Circula as Air Quality Deemed Acceptable

Officials point to monitoring that indicates moderate risk from PM2.5 rather than conditions that would trigger a new contingency.

Overview

  • Vehicles with pink sticker, plates ending in 7 or 8, and verification hologram 1 or 2 may not circulate from 05:00 to 22:00 this Tuesday.
  • Exempt units include those with hologram 0 or 00, certified electric or hybrid vehicles, emergency vehicles, motorcycles, public transport, and cars for people with disabilities.
  • CAMe reported the 06:00 air reading as acceptable with a moderate health risk tied to PM2.5, keeping measures at routine levels.
  • Monitoring showed variation across the network, with Merced and Xochimilco in the yellow range and several Toluca‑area stations registering higher pollution.
  • The program is enforced across all CDMX boroughs, 18 adjacent State of Mexico municipalities, and the Toluca and Santiago Tianguistenco areas, with fines of 20 to 30 UMA for violations.
