==Transportation== ===Airports=== [[Ciudad Obreg贸n International Airport]] (CEN) is the nearest commercial airport, {{convert|48|km|mi|sp=us}} north of Navojoa. It receives flights from [[Guadalajara, Jalisco|Guadalajara]], [[Hermosillo]], [[La Paz, Baja California Sur|La Paz]], [[Loreto, Baja California Sur|Loreto]], [[Los Cabos]], [[Mexico City]], [[Monterrey]], and, internationally, from [[Los Angeles]], [[Tucson, AZ|Tucson]], [[Phoenix, AZ|Phoenix]] and [[Houston, TX|Houston]] in the United States. Airlines serving this airport include Aeromexico, AeroCalafia, Interjet, Volaris and low-cost airline VivaAerobus. Alternate Airports to CEN are Hermosillo Intl. Airport (IATA: HMO) and in a lower sense Los Mochis (IATA: LMM). HMO also receives low cost airlines' flights incoming from the main cities of the Republic such as: Mexico City, Guadalajara, Quer茅taro, Monterrey, Tijuana, Puebla among others. Navojoa also has a local airport (see: [[Navojoa Airport]]) next to the industrial sector, which is suitable for light private planes. It is about {{convert|8|km|mi|sp=us}} south of the city center. ===Buses=== Several companies offer low, mid and luxury class bus services from Navojoa to the Mexican Republic and international destinations such as Tucson, Phoenix and Los Angeles in the US. Connections are offered by foreign partner companies to other USA and Canada destinations. A bus station was built in the north of the city; however it is not used and small stations in the city center are used instead. Old public city buses have been replaced with new models with air conditioning, called SUBA. They run every few minutes and provide simple and cheap transport. ===Railroad=== A north-south freight-only railroad is in operation, connecting to the Mexican border in Nogales and to [[Guadalajara, Jalisco]]. ===Highways=== [[File:ARIELGTZ-AGV 8167 (22739141226).jpg|thumbnail|Navojoa鈥揫[Ciudad Obreg贸n]] Highway]] The most important highway serving Navojoa is [[Mexican Federal Highway 15]], a four-lane highway which connects it to north to Ciudad Obreg贸n, Guaymas, Hermosillo, Nogales and the United States of America; and to the south to the states of Sinaloa, Nayarit, Jalisco, Michoac谩n, State of Mexico and Mexico City. The main state routes serving Navojoa are [[Sonora State Highway 149]] and [[Sonora State Highway 162]]. Also, the Perif茅rico is a semi-beltway encompassing some of Navojoa's southern and western neighborhoods and it is used as a truck route or bypass for Mexican Federal Highway 15. It is enlarged from 2 to 4 lanes in the western section between Centenario Boulevard and Sosa Ch谩vez Boulevard with the project ending in december of 2017. [[Image:Blvd. Alvaro Obreg贸n Navojoa Sonora.jpg|thumb|脕lvaro Obreg贸n Blvd.]] ===Others=== Although Navojoa's streets are almost all paved, horse-drawn carts are still used by the residents of the small surrounding communities ([[San Ignacio Cohuirimpo]], etc.). Horse carts are numerous enough that there is a parking lot reserved for them on Hidalgo Avenue near the City Market in central Navojoa.
