Frontera TIJUANA – The Morelos y de la Amistad Park will be ready to receive families not leaving the city during the holiday season, said Veronica Crown González, Director of Theme Park System Tijuana (Simpatt). She mentioned that the Association of Engineers repaired the slides as many had corrosion of their structures. An in-depth review was required because of the possibility of more damaged areas. "Once inspections are finished, we will take necessary measures so the area is in perfect condition and there are no accidents. So this Holy Week, children will not have slides, but they are otherwise ready for summer", said Crown González. She said there is particular emphasis on park safety, not only against vandalism, but also in providing protection for the families who come, so they are rehabilitating kiosks, bathrooms, cages and other facilities. So far, 25,000 thousand people visited on Sunday, the largest attendance of the season. They can expect increased visits with favorable temperatures and the holidays, which usually result in the same amount of visits or even more. For this reason, they also intend to open the west area of the Park, which was somewhat neglected due to lack of irrigation, but they are already working to open the area and have adequate capacity to accommodate more people.
