CDMX Metro runs without general closures as rain and protests disrupt service
Mexico City’s Metro had no network-wide closures on Friday, October 30, but rain slowed trains on several lines.
The Metro said stations on Line 12 that had closed for an electrical-system check reopened that morning.
Demonstrations disrupted some Metrobús routes, including sections of lines 1 and 4.
The Metro also reported crowding and longer waits on several lines, while Metrobús had delays and road obstructions on lines 4, 5, 6 and 7.
Updates conflicted over Line 1 stations: one said Insurgentes, Sevilla and Cuauhtémoc had reopened, while another said some were still closed.
The conflicting updates leave Line 1’s station status unclear in the information available.
