Three years ago, the people of Tijuana chose Montserrat Caballero as the mayor of this municipality, and since then, she has been heading this administration, proving herself to be a capable leader for Tijuana. During her administration, several projects have begun and concluded and, before her Third Government Report, Caballero has shared a video where she showcased some of her administration's most significant achievements.

Caballero has been a leader committed to the development and wellbeing of Tijuana, achieving significant progress in several areas. Her term that ends on October 1 will leave behind a legacy of progress and substantial improvements for the community of Tijuana.

Settlement of Tijuana's public debt

During her administration, the mayor of Tijuana, Montserrat Caballero, reached important milestones and one of her greatest successes has been the settlement of a 2.575 billion peso debt that has left Tijuana with no public debt. This means that all lines of credits that had been active with three bank institutions have been paid off. This action guarantees financial freedom for the upcoming municipal administration and makes the transition easier without prior economic stress.

In addition, the government has regularized its financial situation with the Institute of Security and Social Services for Government and Municipal Workers of Baja California (ISSSTECALI) by paying more than 1 billion pesos that had been owed for many years. Mayor Montserrat Caballero Ramírez, with support from the governor, was able to reach an agreement that allowed for this payment to be made.

Transformation in roads for Tijuana natives

Investment in infrastructure has been a priority for mayor Montserrat Caballero as there has been an investment of 410 million pesos in pothole repairs and road restoration.

Thus, mobility and road safety have been improved in Tijuana: in total, 139 streets and 17 drainage projects have been restored and 40,000 street lights have been installed, which has improved lighting and safety in several different areas of the city.

Renovation of Playas de Tijuana Pier

With an investment of 200 million pesos, a significant remodeling of the Playas de Tijuana pier has been ordered. This project includes the creation of a pedestrian walkway, the construction of an access ramp for emergency firefighter units, and infrastructure improvements to make lifeguards' work easier in case of emergencies. In addition, the amphitheater and pedestrian walkways will be repaired, with new ramps for people with disabilities and accessible spaces.

The project is also contemplating the creation of a new exercise area, a rest area, and a sculptural lookout "Los Caminantes" to pay tribute to immigrants. These improvements' goal is to strengthen the safety of visitors as they guarantee a more accessible and functional environment for everyone. This remodeling will not only make the pier more beautiful, but also ensure a safe and pleasant experience for all tourists and residents.
