Abstract

The New International Airport of Mexico City is being built on lands outside Lake Texcoco. There is a socio-territorial and environmental planning problem in its construction. This project is not programmed or considered in the urban planning design of local, state or federal order, which allows us to know the lack of coordination between the different urban macro projects. At this moment, there is a change of land use not authorized by the local government, an area of ecological mitigation and rescue, which is now converted into an urban area where will be located the most important urban mega-project in Mexico in the last four decades. This work contains the explanation of the socio-territorial and environmental contradictions that are part of the dimensions of study. They are nourished with interviews and documentary information with an analytical perspective in order to know the various problems related to the New International Airport of Mexico City, which is built in a polygon of what used to be the Texcoco Lake, located in Texcoco City, State of Mexico.
