The governor stated that the improvement of the Mexicali road access from Tijuana is a widely requested public work, even by cargo drivers.
She also stated that this infrastructure project is part of the RESPIRA program, in which Mexicali will invest over 1,2 billion pesos to transform the state capital’s mobility.
Marina del Pilar highlighted that adjustments were made that will make the public work last even longer: a long-term fortification of one of the city’s main road accesses.
For his part, the Secretary of Infrastructure, Urban Development, and Territory Redesign (SIDURT), Arturo Espinoza Jaramillo, explained that this public work also has a drainage system for a correct management of water flow.
He also stated that in cooperation with FIARUM, public solar-powered streetlights will be installed with batteries already set up. The approximate cost of this investment is around 34 million pesos.
