Par Vial traffic diversion when all four lanes of Av.
Camarón Sábalo will be one way south to north begins on April 1 and will end
April 5.
At a press conference yesterday, Mazatlán Mayor Carlos Felton and Cultura Director Raúl Rico announced new programs for the upcoming Semana Santa holiday during which it is expected upwards of 150,000 tourists will visit the city.
The idea is to make Mazatlán an innovative tourist destination, attractive and ideal for new investments that generate employment and social wellbeing, said the Mayor.
Speaking to reporters, the Cultura Director stated that in addition to the Bandródromo 2015 of four bandstands with live music in Olas Altas, there will be two parades with luminous floats and a spectacular fireworks display in the bahía del Viejo Mazatlán (Olas Altas).
The Bandródromo will take place April 1 through 4 from 8pm to 4am and admission is free. Music lovers can bring their own alcoholic beverages providing they are not in glass containers or other material that can be used as weapons.
The Bandródromo will take place April 1 through 4 from
8pm to 4am and admission is free.
Groups appearing at the four night party are Grupo Havana Libre, Banda Sihuey, Los Navegantes, Banda Hermanos Romero, Grupo Maz Show and Banda La Extrema Pura Canela. Stages will be erected in front of Calle Sixto Osuna, Calle Constitución at Olas Altas, in front of the Deer Monument and between the Ferrusquilla and La Mujer Mazatleca statues.
On Thursday, April 2 at 7pm there will be a parade of illuminated floats along the Malecón from Av. Rafael Buelna to Calle Rigoberto Lewis. The parade will be repeated on Saturday, April 4.
A spectacular fireworks display is programed for Friday, April 3 at 10:30pm in Olas Altas Bay.
For his part, Renato Ocampo explained the Par Vial traffic diversion when all four lanes of Av. Camarón Sábalo will be one way south to north begins on April 1 and will end April 5. The change in flow begins at the intersection of Av. Rafael Buelna and Av. Del Mar.
To offer alternative routes to private communities, El Cid will open its gates to public circulation. Marlin and Tiburón boulevards in Sabalo Country, Calle Lomas de Mazatlán and Av. Gaviotas will also be open for two-way traffic.
In order to alleviate the confusion encountered last year when drivers were unaware of the traffic flow change, Ocampo advised hotels and restaurants will be given flyers on the traffic change to be handed to guests and clients.
He also announced free bus fares for tourists and locals travelling Av. Camarón Sábalo and the addition of five parking lots.
