Monterrey is also served by a metro system, which, though modern in its service, only has two lines and services 15% of the Monterrey Metropolitan Area territory. Line 2 is currently being extended, but there is doubt in the community about the financial possibility of completing the project, and critics claim that the limited extension of only one line carries too much cost that the government should not pay, as a privatization effort would be much more productive.
