Two trains are also being planned; one coming from Queretaro and the other from Toluca. The city metro lines 4, A, 9 and 12 will be extended. There are also plans for a new cable car between San Bernabe and Copilco which might be finished in 2018. The city's bike share network Ecobici will double its size with 171 new stations in Benito Juarez.
