The Institute of Mobility of the State of Quintana Roo strengthened its role in public transportation planning in Tulum this week through a technical site visit aimed at improving coordination between state authorities, the municipal government, and the local transport sector.
The initiative, led by Instituto de Movilidad del Estado de Quintana Roo, focuses on advancing a more orderly, safe, and efficient mobility system in Tulum, one of the fastest-growing municipalities in the state. For residents, workers, and visitors who rely daily on taxis and intercity transport, the effort signals closer oversight of how public transportation services are planned and implemented.
Technical visit led by Imoveqroo delegation
The tour was headed by Renan Enrique Pérez y Pérez, Imoveqroo’s delegate in Tulum, representing the institute’s general director, Rafael Hernández Kotasek. Municipal authorities also took part, along with representatives of the Sindicato de Taxistas Tiburones del Caribe, which operates the main taxi services in the municipality.
According to Imoveqroo, the visit was designed to evaluate key infrastructure and projects currently under development as part of the broader process of organizing public transportation. The goal is to align local actions with state mobility policy while maintaining ongoing communication between public agencies and transport operators.
Facilities and projects under evaluation
During the technical tour, participants reviewed several strategic sites linked to public transport operations and user services. These included the taxi union’s customer service center, which plays a central role in managing user requests and operational coordination.
Authorities also visited a terminal for long-distance transport units that is in the process of being implemented. While the project remains under development, its inclusion in the visit reflects state interest in how intercity transport will integrate with local mobility needs.
Another stop involved a taxi unit equipped with a video surveillance system. Imoveqroo officials reviewed this technological alternative as part of efforts to improve passenger safety and the overall experience for users of public transportation services.
The tour also included new facilities intended for medical and dental services connected to the transport sector, highlighting how support infrastructure is being considered alongside mobility operations.
Coordination within the state mobility law
Imoveqroo stated that exercises like this allow authorities to assess the feasibility of projects, provide technical guidance, and reinforce institutional cooperation. All evaluations, the institute noted, are conducted in accordance with the State Mobility Law, which governs how transportation systems are regulated and developed in Quintana Roo.
For Tulum, where rapid growth has increased pressure on roads, transport services, and safety systems, this coordination directly affects how public transportation will function in the coming years. Taxi operators, municipal officials, and users are among those most immediately impacted by decisions that emerge from this planning process.
What changes going forward
The institute reaffirmed its commitment to promoting accessible and modern mobility aligned with state government public policy. While no new regulations or timelines were announced during the visit, Imoveqroo indicated that the findings from the tour will inform ongoing technical support and future planning decisions.
As Tulum continues to expand, the strengthened role of Imoveqroo in local transport planning signals closer collaboration between state and local actors, with potential implications for service organization, safety standards, and infrastructure development tied to public transportation.
