Protests/Demonstrations in Mexico
I've decided to post this thread to keep visitors abreast of what's going on in CDMX regarding the major demonstrations over the city the last several weeks.
The Coordinadora Nacional de Trabajadores de la Educación (CNTE) has been demonstrating in CDMX for at least 3 weeks now for a new contract. Initially, the government authorized their stay on the Zócalo, probably thinking things would work out.
But they have taken over not only the Zócalo, but the side streets and even main walking corridors in the city. And everyday they demonstrate.
They have closed down roads, interstate lanes, metro and metro buses and even the airport. Today they shut down two metro bus line routes again.
If you are visiting Mexico City soon, expect to see this spectacle. Any major updates, I'll post them in this thread.
