This morning, gas stations in Tijuana were filled due to fear of fuel shortages, causing long lines and price increases due to a blockade at Pemex Rosarito.
This morning, gas stations in Tijuana recorded an unusual increase in customer traffic due to fear of running out of fuel. From very early on, service stations had long lines to refill gasoline and diesel.
The high demand is due to recent reports of shortages at several stations, after the closure due to demonstrations at the Rosarito TAR owned by Mexican Petroleum (Pemex), prompting motorists to come early to make sure they get gas. This situation has generated concern among drivers, who fear that the shortage will worsen in the coming days.
At some stations, fuel prices have increased, reflecting pressure on supply and additional transportation costs.
The blockage at the Pemex distribution plant in Playas de Rosarito is affecting supply and could cause temporary increases in prices due to increased demand in the region.
The population has reacted by forming long lines at service stations, exacerbating demand and stress on fuel distribution in the region.
In this sense, authorities and distributors urge citizens not to make panic purchases, ensuring that measures are being taken to mitigate the impact of the shortage and restore regular supply as soon as possible.
