Abstract The COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic is changing the world, the way we socialize, as well as politics and public transport logistics and Mexico is not the exception. Authorities are designing new policies for public transport. The first restrictions include the close of different metro stations to ensure the social distance, avoid excess of passengers and reduce the demand, which also changes the metro system and the way it operates. In this paper a model is presented, based on the analysis and comparison of the Mexico’s City Metro System as a total network as well as the network with stations that are closed due to COVID-19. Using complex networks will give to the population information about the connectivity, efficiency and robustness of the system, in order to be able to make improvements, have adequate planning, set up different policies to improve and meet the needs of the system after COVID-19.
