The government of Tijuana, led by Mayor Ismael Burgueño, has announced a series of road closures for Friday, July 11, as part of a security and traffic operation for the city’s 136th anniversary celebrations, which will feature a performance by Salvador Lizárraga’s La Original Banda El Limón.
Preparations began early Thursday, July 10, with the local Department of Security and Citizen Protection (SSPCM) partially closing one lane near the Miguel Hidalgo Roundabout to allow for stage setup.
Beginning at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, July 11, the SSPCM will also close the Independencia Bridge in both directions, along with Centenario, Josefa Ortiz de Domínguez, Padre Kino, Márquez de León, Villaurrutia, José Gorostiza, and Salvador Novo streets. These closures are necessary to ensure the event runs smoothly and safely.
City Hall is asking residents to plan ahead and use alternate routes to help minimize delays and congestion in the affected areas during the closure.
