The Cuauhtémoc mayor's office reported significant progress in reclaiming public spaces during the week of July 13-19. Operations successfully cleared 3,000 square meters of sidewalks and streets, removing over 2,000 kilograms of "mostrencos", abandoned or unclaimed items cluttering public areas. This initiative also targeted 430 kilograms of abandoned tires and 40 banners placed without authorization.

Further actions included the removal of unauthorized structures in Colonia Roma Norte, specifically on Medellín and Zacatecas streets. The office also conducted five removals of unauthorized furniture and pergolas. In public markets, 271 preventive inspections were carried out, leading to 11 suspension orders for commercial establishments, with two bars ultimately suspended for operating without necessary documentation.

These interventions align with the administration's policy to maintain clear pathways and verify compliance with public space regulations. The efforts focus on removing obstructions and ensuring that streets and sidewalks remain accessible and orderly for residents and visitors.
