Transportation In Mexico City
Transport in Mexico City is managed by the government of the Mexican Federal District through several public companies that administer the different means of transportation. The government of Mexico City operates the second busiest publicly owned transit system in North America after New York City, if private operators (which carry about 60% of the traffic) are included, the Mexico City passenger transport system handles about twice the passengers of the New York MTA. Often, ridership figures given for Mexico City do not include suburban traffic in Mexico City's four massive bus terminals, each of which is similar in size to the Port Authority Bus Terminal in New York City.

Famous quotes containing the words mexico and/or city:
“Is this what all these soldiers, all this training, have been for these seventy-nine years past? Have they been trained merely to rob Mexico and carry back fugitive slaves to their masters?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The city is recruited from the country. In the year 1805, it is said, every legitimate monarch in Europe was imbecile. The city would have died out, rotted, and exploded, long ago, but that it was reinforced from the fields. It is only country which came to town day before yesterday, that is city and court today.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
