Naucalpan Closes Periférico Norte Lateral Between Río San Joaquín and Primero de Mayo for 40-Day Rebuild

Crews are replacing 1.5 kilometers of worn pavement with hydraulic concrete and renewing water and drainage lines to extend the road’s lifespan.

Overview

  • The closure of the lateral lanes in both directions began the night of November 7 with round-the-clock work in two fronts to speed delivery.
  • Authorities are targeting a December 16 reopening, cautioning the timeline could slip depending on weather or on-site conditions.
  • The project covers roughly 16,380 square meters, includes curb, sidewalk and signage rehabilitation, and is funded with 57 million pesos from the municipal government.
  • Only the lateral lanes are shut, with the main carriageway open while crews install high‑durability hydraulic concrete designed to better handle heavy loads and improve lane marking visibility.
  • Drivers are urged to use alternatives such as Boulevard Lomas Verdes, Avenida López Portillo, Vía Gustavo Baz, the Second Level of Periférico, or the Circuito Exterior Mexiquense and to allow extra travel time.
