### Ongoing Concerns Over the Viaducto Elevado Project in Tijuana
The Viaducto Elevado project in Tijuana continues to face scrutiny as the details remain undisclosed to the construction industry. Gabriel Vizcaíno, President of Tijuana’s Chamber of the Mexican Construction Industry, emphasized the pressing need for transparency concerning the management of federal resources allocated to this venture.
Initially scheduled for completion in September, the project’s first segment is now slated to be ready by the end of April. However, concerns grow as construction professionals report not being presented with any official program or project details, leaving them in the dark regarding its progress and any potential modifications.
Vizcaíno noted that, from the perspective of the construction industry, the project’s execution so far has been satisfactory. Yet, the key issue remains the absence of shared information, which hinders further constructive engagement from the industry.
### Additional Developments on the Viaducto Elevado
As the Viaducto Elevado project progresses, new updates have emerged. The government has yet to confirm an exact completion date, with partial openings expected to occur first. The Secretariat of Infrastructure, Urban Development and Territorial Reorganization (SIDURT) has acknowledged the lack of a definitive timeline, attributing delays to ongoing challenges within the project.
Moreover, the broader locale is experiencing other developments and concerns. For example, a Mexico City-based collective is conducting searches in Tijuana this week, with their activities concluding on December 6th. In financial news, Tijuana residents are keeping a close eye on the dollar exchange rate as local banks update their rates regularly. Additionally, approximately 11,000 platform drivers have registered with the state institute IMOS, though there is a noted decrease in daily registrations compared to previous months.
Weather forecasts predict a partly cloudy sky, with temperatures reaching a maximum of 19°C. In terms of social issues, research groups are advocating for DNA tests before burying unclaimed bodies, which they believe could aid families in locating their missing relatives. Lastly, economist Ismael Plascencia warns that the budget deficit caused by social programs is becoming unsustainable, foreseeing cuts in health and security resources by 2025 as part of broader economic adjustments.
