Overview
- Tlaloque 2.0, which the city launched Thursday, stages crews and heavy pumps at 56 high‑risk sites for faster flood response.
- The deployment uses more than 100 rain gauges with C5 emergency alerts, backed by roughly 3.3 billion pesos for works and equipment this year.
- City statements cite 6,000 workers for the broader effort, while the water agency lists 3,200 assigned to Tlaloque 2.0.
- A national program now funds hydraulic works in about 2,300 municipalities, including El Salado’s expansion to 400,000 m3 and capacity upgrades on the Teotongo, Los Pinos and Carmelo Pérez collectors linked to the Xochiaca pump station.
- Forecasters expect a wetter May and June due to El Niño, and risk maps count more than 600 recurring flood points across the World Cup host cities of Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey.
