The first section of the line, known as Corredor Insurgentes, was inaugurated by Andrés Manuel López Obrador, Head of Government of the Federal District from 2000 to 2005, on June 19, 2005.[3] The second stretch of the line, known as Corredor Insurgentes Sur, was inaugurated on March 13, 2008, by Marcelo Ebrard, Head of Government of the Federal District from 2006 to 2012.[4]

Ridership

As of April 2018, the Metrobus Line 1 moves an average of 600,000 commuters daily. This has led to a saturation of the line, thus buses are being substituted for articulated buses.[1]

Incidents

According to the director of CISA, there are between one and four minor accidents per week in Line 1.[8]

On February 2018 a cyclist was hit by a bus when he invaded the confined lane dedicated to the Metrobús. The cyclist died inmediately after the incident.[9]
