Mexicable Line 3 to launch by year-end, serving over 700,000 residents

Line 3 of the Mexicable system in the State of Mexico is nearing completion, with 71.4 percent of the project finished. Operations are slated to commence by the end of the year, promising significant improvements in public transportation for the region.

This new cable car system is a flagship mobility project under Governor Delfina Gómez Álvarez's administration. It is designed to significantly cut down travel times, reducing commutes by up to 30 minutes for daily users. The line is expected to serve more than 40,000 passengers each day.

Construction has progressed substantially, with 47 out of the 62 metallic towers that will support the cable system already installed. The line will feature 278 cabins and span a total length of 9.5 kilometers. It will connect several areas, including Mexipuerto Cuatro Caminos, Alce Blanco, Lázaro Cárdenas, El Molinito, San Antonio Zomeyucan, Centenario, La Tolva, Parque La Hormiga, Izcalli Chamapa, Benito Juárez, and Lomas del Cadete.

The new line is projected to benefit over 700,000 residents living in neighborhoods such as Lázaro Cárdenas, San Antonio Zomeyucan, El Molinito, El Capulín Soledad, San José de los Leones, Mártires del Río Blanco, Benito Juárez, Lomas del Cadete, and Izcalli Chamapa. This expansion offers a vital new transportation option, aiming to enhance connectivity and reduce transit times for a large segment of the population in the Valley of Mexico.
