Bogotá Saturday Pico y Placa Delay Sparks Debate Over Implementation
In February 2025, Bogotá Mayor Carlos Fernando Galán announced a pico y placa scheme that would operate on two Saturdays each month. The Mobility Secretariat later reported that the measure lacks the necessary technical and legal framework, causing the delay.
The controversy intensified after council member Juan David Quintero filed a formal request for clarification. Authorities are now drafting the required studies before opening the proposal for public comment.
