The transit commander said that there will be some alternate avenues, such as the Mexican Army, Cruz Lizárraga, Gabriel Leyva, Marina, and Carlos Canseco.

The main street of the El Cid subdivision will also be opened to circulation so that some units can get as close as possible to the hotel zone, while in the rest of the city there will be transit elements that will speed up traffic.
