The bustling streets of Mexico City welcomed a new addition to its public transportation network – the launch of Line 13 of the Trolebús service. This exciting development promises to revolutionize the daily commute for thousands of residents, offering a sustainable and efficient mode of transport that aligns with modern environmental goals.
“Line 13 will provide a crucial link for commuters, connecting key areas across the city,”
shared a spokesperson from the Servicio de Transportes Eléctricos (STE). The line’s operations will run seven days a week, from early mornings till midnight, catering to diverse schedules and travel needs.
The affordability factor is also noteworthy, with fares set at an accessible 7 pesos. Additionally, certain groups like children under five, individuals with disabilities, and seniors over 60 can enjoy complimentary rides on this eco-friendly mode of transport.
Equipped with state-of-the-art features such as CCTV cameras for security, designated seating for disabled passengers, accessibility ramps, kneeling capabilities for ease of boarding, and sections reserved exclusively for women travelers, Line 13 prioritizes inclusivity and safety.
Traversing from Constitución de 1917 to Mixcoac and serving over 36,000 passengers daily through Coyoacán, Iztapalapa, and Benito Juárez districts; Line 13 boasts a total of 41 stops along its route. With connections to various other critical transport lines like Metro lines 2, 7, 8, and 12; Cablebús line 2; Metrobús lines 1 and 5; as well as Trolebús lines 3 and10 – this new addition promises seamless interconnectivity within Mexico City’s extensive public transportation network.
“The introduction of Line 13 not only enhances commuter convenience but also underscores our commitment to sustainability,”
remarked an urban mobility expert. The electric-powered trolley buses play a pivotal role in curbing harmful emissions while promoting cleaner air quality in the metropolitan area. Their contemporary design coupled with strategic routes ensures swift mobility even in high-demand zones while alleviating traffic congestion on major thoroughfares.
In conclusion…
