Chetumal MOBI transport initiative

Overview

In early July 2026, Chetumal introduced the MOBI social‑fare credentialing system, offering discounted transport cards to students, seniors and people with disabilities. By the end of the month, the State Institute of Mobility (IMOVEQROO) formalised a collaboration with the Universidad Tecnológica de Chetumal. The agreement expands the MOBI service onto the campus, installing a dedicated module that issues preferential transport cards for students, supports social‑service programmes, and integrates university facilities with the public‑transport charging infrastructure. Both steps are part of Governor Mara Lezama’s broader plan to improve affordable, safe mobility for the region’s residents.
