"Mega Bachetón" Highway Initiative.

To address domestic infrastructure concerns, President Sheinbaum has launched the "Mega Bachetón," a 50-billion-peso initiative aimed at repairing the country's pothole-plagued highways. The project is part of a broader 2026 strategy to improve national connectivity and bolster domestic consumption, which has been uneven due to inflation and slower wage growth. This comes as the government faces mounting pressure to deliver tangible public works ahead of the 2027 intermediate elections.
