Monterrey: Is there a secret phone number for the Transito?

18 years ago
Hello All,

I've been living and working in Monterrey, Mexico for the past 4 years, and in general I've not had any problems. Coming from Australia, I was not as aware of the cultural differences, but it's not been unpleasant learning the ropes again.

However, I've finally discovered a situation where I reckon I need some advice. We purchased a house a few months ago, and a month or so ago we went and got an exclusive parking area (yellow lines, posts in the ground, the whole deal). The problem I've discovered is that it doesn't matter which number you dial, the people very politely give you a report number and then no one comes and a) gives the car parking illegally a ticket or b) tows the car away.

So, what should I do?

(PS. Yes, I realise that in the big scheme of things this is a trivial problem, but maybe someone has a solution. Also, if anyone needs advice on starting a small business I'd be more than happy to help, having been through all the hoops already.)
