Overview

  • At the Marinabús launch in Acapulco, President Claudia Sheinbaum declared the city on its feet and said the Navy-operated service will provide safe, sustainable bay transport to bolster tourism and the local economy.
  • The federal government reports direct support to more than 250,000 homes and repairs to damaged schools, hospitals, clinics and health centers following hurricanes Otis and John.
  • Sheinbaum detailed ongoing works including the Papagayo II crossing, river embankment reinforcement and three radial wells, with the Renacimiento treatment plant and marginal collectors entering contracting to curb flooding.
  • Four vehicular bridges damaged in the area are under construction and authorities say 72 bridges are being rehabilitated statewide, while Asipona plans to reconstruct 90% of Acapulco’s port infrastructure and rehabilitate the remaining 10%.
  • Separately, the Senderos de Paz program began August 20 with a December 8 target, covering about 20 km and a 60‑million‑peso budget for lighting, sidewalks, paving, accessibility, green areas and murals, alongside Fonatur’s Costera Miguel Alemán rehab from Papagayo Park to the Naval Base due by year-end.
