MEXICO CITY — Cash-strapped Mexico City is pressing ahead with new bus lines and bike lanes in 2010, buoyed by prestigious recognition for a world-class transit system that has reduced pollution in one of the globe’s largest cities.
“We hope that Mexico City will inspire other cities around the world to embrace environmentally sustainable programs,” said Mayor Marcelo Ebrard, who visited Harvard University this week to accept the Roy Family Award for Environmental Partnerships for the city’s 4-year-old Metrobus system.
