Puebla announces plan to renovate 28,000 streets in 2026
Puebla Governor Alejandro Armenta Mier announced an extensive road infrastructure strategy aimed at renovating 28,000 streets throughout the state and capital during 2026. The plan includes the rehabilitation of 70 avenues in the capital and 30 in various municipalities. This initiative seeks to improve conditions for pedestrians, motorists, and public transport users, with a long-term goal of renewing 150,000 streets by 2030.
In the capital, recent works have concluded on Popocatépetl and Del Rey streets, benefiting over 51,000 residents across eight neighborhoods. The state government is utilizing specialized paving trains to optimize resources, including the reuse of removed materials for secondary roads. This program is supported by the federal government and strategic collaboration with PEMEX.
Other regional reports highlight various local developments, including increased security and transit operations for the return to school season in Ciudad Victoria, and traffic enforcement in Cancún to prevent illegal parking in bus lanes. Additionally, heavy rains have caused temporary closures on the Transpeninsular Highway in Baja California Sur due to rising stream levels.
