Ecatepec Reclaims Ampliación Tulpetlac Park, Offering Free Community Activities

Ecatepec's municipal government has revitalized the recreational park in the Ampliación Tulpetlac neighborhood, marking a step in its broader plan to restore 500 public spaces for community use. Mayor Azucena Cisneros Coss officially reopened the 1,139-square-meter park, which now boasts freshly painted children's play equipment and a refurbished basketball court, alongside cleaned, repainted, and reforested grounds.

"This is a small park, but with many elements because here there is space for exercise, for children, a court. May they maintain it like this, may the neighbors be able to do their part, may they come out so they can be with all the children," the mayor stated during the handover. She emphasized the importance of community involvement in preserving the revitalized space.

The park will host the "Cambia de Cancha" program, offering free activities, particularly physical programs aimed at youth. This initiative seeks to foster community engagement and encourage residents to reclaim and utilize the public space. The mayor also announced plans to rehabilitate pumping systems in the area to improve potable water distribution, addressing long-standing water scarcity issues in the region.
