Relevance of Transportation

• The mobility of people and goods is a priority
  for the Mexico City Governement
• The mobility is determined by the origin and
  destiny of persons and goods
• The lack of transportation infraestructure
  provoke important limitations in the city social
  and economic development

11
The mission of the City Governement

• Promote transportation infrastructure that
  guarantees
• Quality
• Efficiency and low emissions
• Functionality
• Sequrity
• Accesibility
• To reduce trip times

Better quality of life
