Non-motorized mobility all the rage
Guadalajara’s growing number of cyclists marked World No Car Day with a series of events last weekend. A jazz concert, soccer game and a verbena popular were among the celebrations held on streets closed off to traffic especially for the day.

Taggers in Guadalajara are challenging theorists who suggest that community murals painted on public wall space will be respected. After less than a year, these attractive murals on the exterior walls of the Mezquitan cemetery have become free game for the city’s graffiti ‘artists.’
Traffic chaos afflicted Guadalajara this week after a section of Lopez Mateos, one of the metro area’s busiest avenues, was closed while city officials carried out repairs to a damaged storm drain/sewer channel (colector).
