### Current Municipal Administration to Leave 30 Projects Unfinished: SDTUA

Tijuana – The current municipal administration will leave 30 projects unfinished, according to Juan Enrique Bautista Corona, head of the Urban and Environmental Development Secretariat (SDTUA). “The vast majority will be between 5% and 10% from completion,” the municipal official stated.

Among the projects that will not be completed before October 1st is the Macroplaza Bridge. “It was scheduled to be finished in this administration, but we have issues with some power lines from the Federal Electricity Commission,” explained Bautista Corona. The head of SDTUA estimated that the bridge’s construction would be completed during the first few weeks of October.

Other issues affecting the city’s infrastructure include the lack of road signs and synchronization of traffic lights, hindering mobility in Tijuana. Furthermore, the administration has yet to rehabilitate sidewalks with universal design for the next administration. However, progress is being made on projects such as the pedestrian bridge at Macroplaza, which is 50% complete and expected to be finished by September.
