Overview
- Lima’s Line 1 experienced morning delays on September 18 due to a technical failure, with the ATU confirming full restoration and normal operations later that day.
- The Lima concessionaire issued multiple advisories urging alternate routes while technicians worked for hours, and peak waits reached about six minutes with crowding at stations such as Villa El Salvador and San Juan de Lurigancho.
- In Mexico City on September 19, the STC reported slow circulation tied to a track review and a train removed for inspection on Lines 2 and 3, while riders cited 15–20 minute waits on Line 12.
- The Zócalo station closed temporarily for earthquake commemorations, and the Metro applied dosificación to regulate entry at busy points like Indios Verdes to relieve saturated platforms.
- STC posted per‑line wait estimates of roughly 4–7 minutes across several routes and said service would normalize shortly, as Metrobús reported no formal incidents despite user complaints of lags on Line 1 near Buenavista.
