The maximum festival of the port attracts visitors from different parts of the country, mainly on Saturday and Sunday

Mazatlan, Sinaloa. – It will be between Saturday and Sunday the days when there is an increase of up to 100% in the capacity of vehicles arriving in Mazatlan, due to the celebration of the Carnival Somos America.

The head of the Green Angels, Ricardo Picos Quintero, acknowledged that normally the circulation for the first two days of the celebration remains normal, as any other day of the week.

From Thursday and Friday we expect the arrival of visitors, however, it is the weekend where the influx is triggered, because they are the days in which they can reach the port, because carnival is not a holiday period.

From the experience of other carnivals, he said, the arrival of visitors from different parts

From the experience of other carnivals, he said, the arrival of visitors from different parts of the Mexican Republic has increased, among which Mexico City, Jalisco, and Durango stand out.

On those holidays, he said, they also increase the attention provided by the staff in charge, which can even triple.

Normally, he said, Green Angels provide 50 to 70 services on non-holiday days, which increase to 210 supports once students leave on vacation.

He said that the aids they give to motorists are the same as always, such as the orientation of points and places, as well as mechanical failures, lack of fuel and tire puncture.

There are 18 elements of the corporation that carry out constant routes along the highways and free roads, where they expect the road flow to start increasing from Saturday.
