Puebla Launches Microsite for Cablebús After Foundation Donates Xonaca Land

The government opened an online portal to publish project studies as a response to public concern.

Overview

  • The Mary Street Jenkins Foundation donated a plot in Xonaca to the state to host a Cablebús station, and the government highlighted the gift as support for the project.
  • The state launched a microsite that it says will publish planning documents, technical studies and authorizations and will be updated weekly to inform residents about the system.
  • Officials presented project parameters including four lines, nine stations, 94 towers and 383 cabins while promising restitution of public spaces affected by station construction.
  • Journalists and community groups continue to demand full access to key contracts and supporting studies, citing earlier reporting that many documents remained reserved or available only in printed form.
  • Residents have raised concerns about land expropriations, tree loss and surveillance tied to tower infrastructure, and those concerns overlap with legal challenges brought by neighborhood organizations.
