Mexico City Police Warn of Marches, Rallies and Rides Set to Slow Traffic

The police published a mobility agenda to help drivers avoid street closures.

Overview

  • The SSC’s latest agenda lists protests, prayer marches, community events and cycling rides across several boroughs that could block main avenues and slow trips.
  • Key marches include Frente Unido Autista de México in Venustiano Carranza at 9:00, Movimiento Cristiano en México toward the Ángel de la Independencia at 12:00, and No Más Presos Inocentes by the city’s criminal courts in Cuauhtémoc at 9:00.
  • Cannabis advocacy groups plan midday gatherings in Cuauhtémoc, with Colectiva Hijas de la Cannabis and La Comuna 4:20 set for 12:00 and Plataforma 4:20 shifting from Monumento a la Madre at 12:00 to Río Churubusco y Añil in Iztacalco at 13:00.
  • A mass event adds to congestion risks as Veracruz face the Diablos Rojos at Estadio Alfredo Harp Helú at 13:00, with suggested alternates on Viaducto Río de la Piedad, Río Churubusco and Calzada Ignacio Zaragoza.
  • Police urge people to leave early, plan alternate routes and watch for last‑minute route changes that often occur with public demonstrations.
