Mexico City's Ministry of Mobility is initiating the expansion of its Ecobici public bicycle system. A public international tender has been released to contract comprehensive services for the system, aiming to benefit the boroughs of Iztacalco, Iztapalapa, and Tlalpan.

According to the tender announcement in the Official Gazette, the bidding documents for tender number 30001062-001-2026 cost 100,000 pesos. The deadline to purchase these documents is August 9. The proposal submission and opening will take place on August 14, with the final decision to be announced on August 17.

The comprehensive service for the public bicycle system is planned to operate in the boroughs of Álvaro Obregón, Azcapotzalco, Benito Juárez, Coyoacán, Cuauhtémoc, Iztacalco, Iztapalapa, Miguel Hidalgo, and Tlalpan. Notably, Iztacalco, Iztapalapa, and Tlalpan currently lack Ecobici service, making this expansion their first introduction to the public bicycle system.
