Overview
- President Claudia Sheinbaum said Thursday the federal rebuild starts this month after March bidding, with 13,780 million pesos to fix 396 road sections and 94 bridges.
- The program covers Hidalgo, Puebla, Veracruz, Querétaro and San Luis Potosí, including 50 sites in Hidalgo, 22 in Puebla, 18 in Veracruz, 13 in Querétaro and 1 in San Luis Potosí.
- SICT chief Jesús Antonio Esteva Medina reported 68 bridges in Guerrero are already finished from earlier works tied to the same storm damage.
- Officials explained that emergency crews opened provisional passages after the October 2025 rains, and permanent rebuilds could only begin once design work and public tenders were completed.
- The effort is part of a broader highway agenda with active corridors such as Cuautla–Tlapa, Tamazunchale–Huejutla and Toluca–Zihuatanejo, with Ciudad Valles–Tampico slated to advance in 2026.
