Hoy No Circula Stays in Effect on Christmas Day in Mexico City and Conurbated Edomex

Enforcement coincides with planned protests plus early fog that could slow travel.

Overview

  • From 05:00 to 22:00, vehicles with a green sticker, plate endings 1 or 2, and verification hologram 1 or 2 are barred from circulating in CDMX and neighboring State of Mexico municipalities, according to CAMe.
  • The SSC scheduled two mobilizations in Álvaro Obregón—one at 07:00 departing San Jerónimo toward Los Dinamos and another at 18:00 from Avenida Insurgentes toward the Centro—both with undefined routes that may trigger intermittent closures.
  • Conagua forecast fog between 06:00 and 09:00 in parts of the State of Mexico including Lerma, Atlacomulco, Naucalpan, Ecatepec, and Amecameca, with morning haze in Mexico City reducing visibility.
  • Valle de Toluca remains in a socialization phase through December with no fines for noncompliance, and penalties are scheduled to begin on January 1, 2026 under the expanded program.
  • Drivers can check their status using the city’s “¿Qué días no circulo?” tool; separately, the Edomex environment authority announced Doble Hoy No Circula for December 26 limited to the Valle de Toluca and Santiago Tianguistenco due to a Phase I contingency, per Milenio.
