Red de Transporte de Pasajeros

Public bus service in the Mexico City metropolitan area was provided by several private concessions starting from 1916, including the Lomas de Chapultepec Primera Clase, which was founded in 1942. Ruta 100 continued to operate until April 7, 1995, when that system went bankrupt. In 1994, Ruta 100 operated approximately 2,900 buses on 210 routes over a network, carrying 2.9 million passengers per day. By 1997, that had collapsed to 176 routes over , carrying 1.9 million passengers daily. the STT fleet was inherited by RTP when it was formed in January 2000. A strike by Sindicato de Trabajadores de la Red de Transportes de Pasajeros (STRTP) was averted in 2014 when the Distrito Federal agreed to grant STRTP workers a 4% increase in wages and a reduction to 40 hours per week. The name of the system changed to Sistema de Movilidad 1 (M1, Mobility System 1) on June 15, 2016, but the name change was reverted to RTP in January 2019. ==Services==
