President-elect Claudia Sheinbaum, who is set to take office on October 1, has outlined infrastructure as a key priority area for her administration. One of her major initiatives includes the development and improvement of 13 highways across Mexico, with a significant investment totaling approximately US$2 billion.
Among these projects is the expansion of the highway between Tijuana and Los Cabos, which will involve constructing a bypass road between Ensenada and Tijuana. This expansion aims to enhance connectivity and improve transportation efficiency in the region.
With Sheinbaum’s landslide victory in the presidential election, securing an impressive 59.36 percent of the vote, and her party MORENA’s virtual majority in Congress, she is expected to have strong support for obtaining the necessary funding for these infrastructure projects. This backing underscores the likelihood of these initiatives moving forward smoothly.
As Mexico prepares for Sheinbaum’s presidency, anticipation is high regarding how these ambitious infrastructure plans will unfold and positively impact the country’s transportation network and economic development.
