Overview
- Clara Brugada said the city will start a full rebuild of Metro Line 3, which runs from Indios Verdes to Universidad, after the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
- She presented the move as a change from routine fixes to complete renewals of each line in a system that is more than 50 years old.
- The government says it will direct nearly 50 billion pesos across 2025 and 2026 to modernize the Metro network.
- Officials will hold the fare at 5 pesos per ride even though they estimate each trip costs 13 pesos, with the subsidy covering the gap.
- Line 3 has had service problems affecting thousands of riders, and the city cites the recently finished Line 1 upgrade as the model, with a detailed work schedule for Line 3 still pending.
