San Luis Potosí agenda 2026 – infrastructure, AI, social aid

Entities: Ciudad del Maíz · Ricardo Gallardo Cardona · San Luis Potosí

Overview

In mid‑July Governor Ricardo Gallardo Cardona opened a public consultation to draft AI legislation, convening scholars from the Autonomous University of San Luis Potosí to stress human‑rights safeguards against digital violence, fraud, extortion, identity theft and to protect freedom of expression.

State‑level construction activity continued to contract, with the April 2026 construction index slipping to 41.6, production down 10.2 % year‑on‑year, employment down 10.6 % and average real wages falling 3.3 %.

The Secretaría de Desarrollo Urbano, Vivienda y Obras Públicas (Seduvop) announced temporary traffic changes on Sierra Vista and Circuito Potosí to accommodate the start of the Family Bridge project, routing drivers via Eugenio Garza Sada and adding a side lane to keep commercial access open. It also previewed a new works package for the industrial zone, featuring rehabilitation of the deteriorated CFE Avenue and completion of the Highway 57 lateral, now 65‑70 % finished.

San Luis Potosí allocated 6.4 million pesos to the Center for Justice for Women, purchasing computers, servers, printers, a vehicle and other equipment to strengthen legal, psychological and outreach services and improve protection of sensitive case data.

At a business‑promotion seminar in Osaka, the state showcased its industrial capacity to Japanese officials, JETRO, METI and local firms such as Daikin and Nissin, seeking new projects and investment. The event reinforced earlier plans to attract Japanese capital.

Parallel World Cup 2026 activities under the “San Luis Capital, Corazón del Fútbol” programme generated over 5 million pesos in direct sales and an estimated 30 million pesos economic impact for local merchants, with visitors from at least 13 countries.

In late July, Governor Gallardo expanded direct social aid in Ciudad del Maíz, extending coverage to more than 6,800 households and pledging intermediary‑free deliveries throughout all 59 municipalities, aiming to improve conditions for families across the state.
