These are the mega-construction projects coming to Quintana Roo

A 47-kilometer mass transportation system from downtown Cancun to the hotel zone is one of the mega-projects contemplated for Quintana Roo, which together will represent an investment of 41,758 million pesos.

The project called Cancunbus will have 29 stations and 2 terminals under the Public-Private Partnership scheme, with a 30-year contract with a company that will be in charge of the design, construction, equipment, operation, administration, and maintenance.

Cancunbus would serve a daily demand of 66,800 passengers, as part of the state government's integral strategy, which would complement the Mayan Train, one of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador's flagship projects.

The Nichupté Bridge, over the lagoon of the same name, is planned with an investment of 4,500 million pesos, whose execution will be carried out by the Mexican Army, to lighten traffic in the hotel zone of the destination.
