Coyoacán mayor's office to facilitate access for residents near Mexico City Stadium; pass is free and unforgeable, says mayor

The Coyoacán mayor's office in Mexico City will collaborate to ensure easier access for residents living near the Mexico City Stadium during events related to the World Cup. Mayor Giovani Gutiérrez stated that the "tarjetón vehicular," a special pass for vehicles, is a support mechanism designed to facilitate mobility and access to the area, rather than a restrictive measure.

During a press conference, Gutiérrez explained that the city's police will manage the access filters in the stadium's immediate perimeter. The mayor's office will provide support and guidance to residents. The primary goal of this strategy is to streamline entry and exit, ensuring the safety, mobility, and well-being of those living in neighborhoods close to the stadium.

The "tarjetón" is entirely free. The mayor's office conducted a door-to-door census in eight nearby neighborhoods, registering 13,683 vehicles. These passes feature security measures to prevent forgery and cannot be transferred to others, as they contain specific vehicle details like model, color, and license plates. Residents are warned against individuals attempting to sell these passes.

For those missed in the census, a permanent support desk is available at the Centro de las Artes Santa Úrsula (CASU) to schedule a registration visit. Gutiérrez reiterated that residents with proof of address, such as official identification, will still be granted access even without the "tarjetón." Emergency, security, and medical vehicles, as well as those with justified reasons for entry, will also have access. "We are not restricting; the Constitution guarantees free transit, and we will obey that," Gutiérrez affirmed.
