Mexico City continues park vendor reordering operations

Mexico City officials are maintaining public space reordering operations in Alameda Central park, aiming to balance commerce with public enjoyment. César Cravioto, the capital's Secretary of Government, stated that operations will continue "until groups understand that the Alameda belongs to everyone."

An agreement has been reached with vendors, allowing them to sell their goods on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, while the rest of the week they can set up shop but in significantly smaller numbers than before the operations began. Cravioto emphasized that vendors are respecting the agreements, and commerce can continue in the area, but in a "reasonable number and not in saturation."

In a social media video, Cravioto highlighted the presence of the Secretariat of Public Security (SSC) and personnel from the Subsecretariat of Alcaldía Programs and Public Space Reordering around the park's periphery. He pointed out how much better the Alameda looks when it is not saturated with vendors, noting that many people come to enjoy the park in the mornings.

The reordering efforts aim to ensure that the central walkways and fountains are free of informal vendors, making the park more accessible and aesthetically pleasing for visitors. The initiative seeks to create a more orderly environment while still allowing for regulated commercial activity.
