MexicoQuerétaro Highway Reopens After Overnight Pemex Convoy as Delays Persist

Interagency teams used contraflow, escorts and barrier adjustments to move oversized Pemex units overnight, with joint operations continuing to ease residual delays.

Overview

  • The SICT scheduled a partial closure from kilometer 69 to 56 between 22:00 and 05:00 for the escorted transfer of oversized Pemex equipment toward Mexico City.
  • CAPUFE said the operation required controlled speed, technical supervision, escort vehicles and temporary contraflow, reducing capacity through the work zone.
  • Authorities reported that similar transfers this week wrapped before dawn, with brief additional holds to reassemble barriers before full circulation resumed.
  • Morning updates noted lingering congestion on various stretches, and CAPUFE is working with the National Guard on traffic-control measures to improve flow.
  • A separate tanker-truck incident at kilometer 96 earlier in the week added to localized disruption unrelated to the convoy operations.
