Mexico City Metro and Metrobús face delays and station closures
Several Mexico City transit lines faced delays and closures amid traffic, roadworks and demonstrations.
On Metro Line 7, passengers were evacuated from a train at Camarones station, delaying service.
The Metro gave no explanation for the train incident in the updates provided.
Metrobús service was also disrupted, including closures at Canela on Line 2 and Gustavo A. Madero on Line 6 because of work on dedicated bus lanes.
Demonstrations and traffic slowed other Metrobús lines, including Lines 3, 4 and 5.
The disruptions matter because passengers may need to allow extra travel time or use other stations.
No further steps or timetable for restoring affected service were given.
