Nineteenth-century lamps installed at metro hidalgo station ahead of 2026 world cup

Mexico City's Metro Hidalgo station on Line 2 received nineteenth-century style lamps as part of ongoing renovations.

The lamps are part of an electrical and lighting upgrade across several stations on Line 2, which runs from Cuatro Caminos to Tasqueña.

Metro director general Adrián Rubalcava said the works aim to have remodeled stations ready before June 11, the date of the 2026 World Cup opening match between Mexico and South Africa at Estadio Banorte.

Changes include new floors, steel edges on steps, wall renovations and signage in Spanish and English. Maintenance was also performed on rails and electrical components to reduce service failures.

Bellas Artes station will feature finishes similar to the Palacio de Bellas Artes lobby, while Tasqueña and Zócalo are among other stations included in the project.
