Participants are demanding increased salaries and better working conditions. Protest locations include the intersection of Calzada de Tlalpan and Viaducto Rio de la Piedad and the intersection of Anillo Periferico y Avenida San Jeronimo.

Transport and business disruptions are highly likely in the affected areas. Authorities will likely deploy a heightened security presence to the protest site. Clashes are possible if security forces try to disperse the demonstrators forcibly.
