July

This weekend the restrictions of Hoy No Circula return in its weekend edition, that project devised by the Secretariat of the Environment of Mexico City (SEDEMA) with the objective of reducing pollution levels in the Metropolitan Area of ​​the Valley of Mexico. Once again, drivers must verify the final digit of their license plate and the type of hologram they carry before embarking on their trip. These measures are not limited exclusively to the 16 districts of the capital, but extend to multiple neighboring towns located in the State of Mexico. The regulations are also valid in: Atizapan of Zaragoza Coacalco de Berriozábal Cuautitlan Cuautitlán Izcalli Chalco Chicoloapan Chimalhuacan Ecatepec de Morelos Huixquilucan Ixtapaluca Peace Naucalpan de Juárez Nezahualcoyotl Nicolas Romero Tecámac Tlalnepantla de Baz Tultitlan Chalco Valley Therefore, it is worth keeping in mind that if your route includes traveling through any of these regions, the limitations of Today No Circula on Saturday will remain in force. What cars and license plates does Hoy No Circula Saturday affect? As you can imagine, the final objective of this plan is to reduce the volume of polluting emissions into the atmosphere, governing weekends under specific rules that complement the shifts from Monday to Friday. The obligation to stop the vehicle does not affect all drivers simultaneously: the hologram, the final number on the license plate and the position of Saturday in the month (odd or even) dictate who has the green light to drive and who must turn off the engine. It is essential to consider that Hoy No Circula Saturday does not remain active 24 hours a day. Its period of application covers from 5:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., which means that outside of this time frame—during nighttime and early morning hours—cars can circulate freely, unless an alert is activated due to an environmental contingency or an extraordinary regulation is issued that conditions traffic. For this Saturday 11 July 2026second Saturday of the month of July, we are facing what is considered the even week of the month. Under these parameters, units equipped with hologram 1 and whose license plates end in an even number will be prohibited from moving during the hours established by the program. If your car falls into this category, you will have to park it until 10:00 p.m. On the contrary, those cars that have holograms 0 and 00 can circulate without restrictions. Finally, vehicles with hologram 2 cannot circulate on any Saturday, regardless of whether it is an even or odd week. In addition to what was described above, it is worth remembering that there is a group of cars that are exempt from meeting these restrictions: Electric, natural gas or hybrid technology vehicles Units registered with plates for people with disabilities All those intended for urban public transport services (including funeral services) Those dedicated to school or passenger transportation Those assigned to public security and/or civil protection The penalty for not complying with this regulation ranges from 20 to 30 times the Measurement and Update Unit (UMA), a range that approximately translates into a floor of 1,924.40 pesos and a ceiling of 2,886.60 pesos. Added to the hit to the pocketbook, the offender risks having the vehicle towed or impounded and the consequent loss of time involved in solving the administrative procedure before the security forces. What cars and license plates does Hoy No Circula Saturday affect? Failure to comply with the Hoy No Circula will be punished with a fine that ranges between 20 and 30 times the value of the Measurement and Update Unit (UMA), a figure that represents approximately 1,924.40 pesos at its lowest level until reaching 2,886.60 pesos at the highest limit. In addition, the driver risks having the car taken to the vehicle depot. Photo | Cory Bouthillette In Xataka | The countries that pollute the most in the world, gathered in a detailed graph

Saturday. Day off. Rest for us, of work, and rest for cars that yes or yes they have to stay at home with today does not circulate sabbatino. As? Yes, because if you still don’t know, there are some cars that have to stay at home, yes or yes, if you don’t want to receive a fine. What we are talking about is of the program today does not circulate, devised by the Ministry of Environment of the CDMX (Sedema) with the aim of improving the air we breathe. To achieve this, the plan is very simple: we have to leave cars at home. At least those that are more polluting. Therefore, there are restrictions that do not allow us to enjoy our car on Saturday. Restrictions, yes, that only apply in the 16 mayors in Mexico City and in the following conurbation municipalities of the State of Mexico: Atizapán de Zaragoza Coacalco de Berriozábal Cuautitlán Cuautitlán Izcalli Chalco Chicoloapan Chimalhuacán Ecatepec de Morelos Huixquilucan Ixtapaluca La Paz Naucalpan de Juárez Nezahualcóyotl Nicolás Romero Tecámac Tlalnepantla de Baz Tultitlán Chalco Valley What cars and plaques affect the Sabatino today But, once we are clear about the most basic, who have to stay at home? Very simple, restrictions as you can see in the image superior are applied every day. But not every day the same cars are affected. That is complicated on Saturdays since it is not always the same cars that are forced to rest. Some of them, in fact, may not move any Saturday but others can only do so one yes and another not in alternate weeks. Because, indeed, one day as the following conditions can be applied today. Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another no+ These restrictions, however, do not apply all day. At night they do not take into account and, therefore, are active between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m.. That is, at night we can move freely and without being afraid of fines. Once we have all this clear … What should we take into account? First of all, the Sabatino does not circulate today does not always apply to the same cars, as we said. To be clear about everything, you have to look at the calendar first, then the hologram and, finally, the plate number. We say about the calendar because on Saturdays, which occupy us, they are special. Cars with hologram 2 cannot move any Saturday of the current month. On the contrary, Hologram 0 and 00 can move without problems. In that case there is total freedom. So what happens to the hologram 1? These cars rotate depending on the latest issue of their registration plate. In this case, such as Saturday July 26, 2025 We are facing the fourth Saturday of the month of July will be the cars with hologram 1 and plaque finished in odd number those that cannot move. Taking all this into account, what to take into account when it comes to circulating? The first thing is that today does not circulate Sabatino does not always apply to all cars. It is mandatory to look at the calendar, the hologram and, finally, the plate number. In that order. However, there are some exceptions that must be taken into account because those cars can move with total freedom: Those that work for electricity, natural gas or are hybrid Those who have disabled plate All those dedicated to urban transport services (includes funerals) Those who offer school or passenger transport Those destined for public safety and/or civil protection In case of breaching these restrictions, the fine will be 20 to 30 times the unit of measurement and update (Uma), which is equivalent to 1,924.40 pesos and even 2,886.60 pesos.

These restrictions pass, irremediably, for leaving at home those cars that are affected by them. Restrictions, of course, that only apply in the 16 mayors in Mexico City and in the following conurbation municipalities of the State of Mexico: Atizapán de Zaragoza Coacalco de Berriozábal Cuautitlán Cuautitlán Izcalli Chalco Chicoloapan Chimalhuacán Ecatepec de Morelos Huixquilucan Ixtapaluca La Paz Naucalpan de Juárez Nezahualcóyotl Nicolás Romero Tecámac Tlalnepantla de Baz Tultitlán Chalco Valley What cars and plaques affect the Sabatino today Once we know the most basic, what restrictions should we take into account? First that these restrictions apply, yes or yes, every day as you can see in the superior image but there are special days. Those special days are every Saturday of the month when some cars do not have to stay at home and others will have to stay in the garage week by week. But, doubts come with those who rotate. Because, indeed, one day as the following conditions can be applied today. Cars that can circulate every Saturday Cars that have to rest every Saturday Cars that rest on a Saturday yes and another no+ These restrictions, however, do not apply all day. At night they do not take into account and, therefore, are active between 05:00 and 10:00 p.m.. That is, at night we can move freely and without being afraid of fines. Taking all this into account, what to take into account when it comes to circulating? The first thing is that today does not circulate Sabatino does not always apply to all cars. It is mandatory to look at the calendar, the hologram and, finally, the plate number. In that order. The calendar because on Saturdays, as we said, they are special. Some cars, those of Hologram 2, may not move any Saturday of the month. These cars have to stay home every Saturday at the time that restrictions are applied. The opposite happens with those of Hologram 0 and 00. In that case, there is total freedom. And the hologram 1? In that case, for restrictions the calendar must be taken into account. This Saturday, July 19, 2025 We are facing the third Saturday of the month. That means that it is the cars with hologram 1 and plate finished in odd number those that rest. Next week, as is broken, they will be finished in torque. However, there are some exceptions that must be taken into account because those cars can move with total freedom: Those that work for electricity, natural gas or are hybrid Those who have disabled plate All those dedicated to urban transport services (includes funerals) Those who offer school or passenger transport Those destined for public safety and/or civil protection In case of breaching these restrictions, the fine will be 20 to 30 times the unit of measurement and update (Uma), which is equivalent to 1,924.40 pesos and even 2,886.60 pesos.
