Mexico City's Cablebús Line 1 undergoes annual maintenance with free RTP service

Mexico City's Line 1 Cablebús, connecting Indios Verdes to Cuautepec, is currently closed for its annual maintenance. This essential upkeep ensures the system's continued safe and reliable operation for thousands of daily commuters.

During the maintenance period, all stations along Line 1 are inaccessible. To mitigate the disruption, the city's public transport authority, RTP, is providing a free bus service. This ensures that residents can still travel between the affected areas while the cable car system is temporarily offline.

The comprehensive maintenance program involves detailed inspections and preventive work on various components. This includes the electromechanical systems, the cabins themselves, and the supporting towers. Specialist teams are also conducting thorough checks on electrical and hydraulic systems, as well as the ticketing infrastructure. Load tests and rehabilitation of tower components are also part of the extensive upkeep.
