Tulum, Q.R. — The new National Guard base built to provide Maya Train security has been inaugurated. The new facility was inaugurated Friday in Tulum. Federal, state and municipal authorities participated in the inauguration at the Tulum Airport Station base.

The ceremony was presided over by Chief Commissioner Juan Carlos Guzmán Giadans, Territorial Coordinator of the National Guard in the Southeast Region who pointed out that the National Guard base is key in ensuring Maya Train security in the south.
Guzmán Giadans said that Sedena (Secretaría de la Defensa Nacional), played a fundamental role in consolidating the federal government’s priority infrastructure projects, including the Maya Train. The new National Guard base is intended to provide permanent surveillance of the section of the Maya Train that runs from Tulum International Airport, safeguarding both travelers and employees.

“Strengthening security institutions is key to guaranteeing justice, peace and the country’s social and economic development,” Guzmán Giadans stated. He said that the new base not only symbolizes institutional commitment, but also establishes essential conditions for the functioning of the railway system and the protection of those who travel on it.
