Tapatios, and people throughout Mexico, have a new way to record concerns about their city – whether they be erratic bus drivers, broken sidewalks or violent crime – thanks to the work of a Guadalajara tech company.

The death of an 18-year-old University of Guadalajara (UdG) student in an accident involving a city bus last week persuaded Jalisco Governor Aristoteles Sandoval to revoke the one-peso fare hike approved last year, with the exception of the Tren Ligero (subway) and Macrobus (BLT) routes.

The greater part of the construction of Guadalajara’s third subway line was put out to tender last week, a process that will finalize in a couple of months.

Regular visitors to Guadalajara’s Galerias mall can be torn between two choices of membership-only warehouse clubs situated on either side of Avenida Rafael Sanzio: Sam’s and Costco.

The first 30 kilometers of the  111-kilometer Macrolibramiento highway to the south of Guadalajara could be open to traffic by the end of 2014.

Colectivo 4:20, a Guadalajara-based group created via social media that is campaigning  to legalize marijuana in Mexico, took to the city’s premier avenue this week to disseminate information about the polemic substance.
