Wow, the Metro was crazy last Monday. Delays of up to 20 minutes on several lines due to Shakira's concert at the Zócalo. Platforms crowded, trains saturated, the typical early-week nightmare. Line 1 and Line 8 were the worst, with wait times of over 15 and 20 minutes respectively. Line 3 was also busy, especially at Indios Verdes.



What annoyed most was that stations in the downtown area were closed today, leaving people with no options. The Zócalo/Tenochtitlán was closed in the morning due to the event, so everyone had to go to Pino Suárez or Allende. Luckily, they reopened around 9:40 AM, but the morning was chaotic. Meanwhile, Line 2 continues its renovation work, operating only from 5 AM to 10 PM on weekdays and closing early on Saturdays.

On the other hand, the Metrobús operated normally, with no reports of delays. The obvious recommendation: if you use the Metro, leave plenty of time and stay alert for announcements. March was tough, but well, that's what happens during these times.
