Buenavista terminal may be modernized to connect rail and transit services
Mexico City's Buenavista terminal may be modernized to better connect its train, Metro and Metrobús services.
The station already serves the Suburban Train, Metro Line B and Metrobús routes, and the Suburban Train now runs to Felipe Ángeles International Airport.
Federal agencies are evaluating changes as rail projects, including the Mexico City–Pachuca train, move forward.
The plans would make transfers and pedestrian routes easier and could reorganize platforms and tracks for growing passenger numbers.
Proposed additions include ticket offices, automated machines, a waiting room and screens showing departures.
Officials aim to modernize the terminal before 2030, alongside construction of the Mexico City–Pachuca line, but the project is still under evaluation.
