Description
Summary:This review finds that while Mexico has taken important steps in addressing the urban challenges in the Valle de México, Mexico's largest metropolitan area, there is a need for major metropolitan governance reform.  Serious urban governance failings are inhibiting adequate responses to critical urban development priorities - regeneration, access to adequate housing, reliable and safe public transport, and environmental protection.
