Replacement of stations
[edit]On November 28, 2022, five eastward bus stops were removed. Mercado de Sonora, La Merced, Mercado Ampudia,[i] Las Cruces Norte and Museo de la Ciudad stations were relocated southbound due to traffic jams caused by their location in the market area of the historic center of the city.[22][23]
Operator
[edit]Conexión Centro-Aeropuerto, SA de CV (CCA) is the sole operator of Line 4.[24]
