The current municipal administration will invest approximately 100 million pesos in safe paths in Tijuana, and will also install 6,000 surveillance cameras and lighting in areas with a high crime rate.
Mayor Ismael Burgueño Ruiz reported that currently the largest number of cameras are located in the Downtown area, but with the new ones to be installed, they will seek to provide them to the East Zone of Tijuana.
During the media conference, he thanked the State Congress for approving the cameras, cleaning units, and lighting through multi-year contracts.
He indicated that this approval will help make the municipality a cleaner city with improved garbage collection, reaching 95% of the city, and thus preventing unserved neighborhoods from having to pay for this service. They will also work at night to clean the streets with street sweepers. He will issue a tender at the appropriate time for the winning company to do the same, but revealed that once the contract is signed, they will have eight months to make the necessary changes.
