“Hoy No Circula” (No Circulation Today) is a program implemented in Mexico City and the metropolitan area to reduce air pollution by restricting the circulation of vehicles based on their license plate number. The program has been in place since 1989 and has been modified several times over the years.
The current Hoy No Circula program restricts the circulation of vehicles based on the last digit of their license plate number. Vehicles with license plates ending in 5 or 6 are restricted on Mondays, 7 or 8 on Tuesdays, 3 or 4 on Wednesdays, 1 or 2 on Thursdays, and 9 or 0 on Fridays. The restriction applies from 5:00 AM to 10:00 PM.
The Hoy No Circula program also has a number of exceptions, including vehicles used for public transportation, emergency vehicles, and vehicles used by people with disabilities.
The program has been shown to be effective in reducing air pollution in Mexico City. A study by the Mexican Center for Environmental Law found that the program reduced ozone levels by 10% and particulate matter by 20%.
On January 29, 2025, the Hoy No Circula program will be in effect for vehicles with license plates ending in 7 or 8. This means that these vehicles will not be allowed to circulate in Mexico City and the metropolitan area from 5:00 AM to 10:00 PM.
The Hoy No Circula program is an important part of Mexico City’s efforts to reduce air pollution. The program has been shown to be effective in reducing ozone and particulate matter levels, and it has helped to improve the city’s air quality.
