The Morelia cable car system has entered its initial electromechanical testing phase. This stage involves moving the first cabin across the section connecting the Estadio, Primo Tapia, Pedregal, and Obelisco stations.

María Elena Huerta, Secretary of Urban Development and Mobility, noted that evaluations will focus on technical factors such as carrier cable behavior, tension, displacement speed, and station functionality. This testing is part of a certification process intended to meet European standards for cable transport systems, ensuring all safety and technical requirements are met before commercial service commences.
