New wheels for Chapala public services

A pair of second-hand passenger buses and two brand new garbage trucks were lined up outside Chapala City Hall on Thursday, March 4, for a blessing ceremony before being put into public services.

The 2015 model Dina buses, each with capacity for 33 riders, were given to the municipality on permanent loan from the state government to be utilized for transporting students, athletic teams and other groups to educational, sports and cultural events.
