It operates between Felipe Ángeles International Airport in Zumpango, Ojo de Agua in Tecámac and Ciudad Azteca in Ecatepec de Morelos. It was the first line to be built and to be opened.

It is 20 kilometers (12 mi) long and was used by approximately 130,000 users per day during 2012. The line has four different types of services, including a service exclusive for women and children. The line operates with 75 articulated Volvo 7300 BRT buses painted white with red, light green and dark green trim. It began free operations in October 2010.

Las Torres Santa María Chiconautla station was closed and totally dismantled in 2022. The station opened in 2010 and served the town of Santa María Chiconautla. To facilitate the operation of Lines I and IV, it was decided to open the then-inoperative Insurgentes station instead. The approximate distance between Hidalgo and Insurgentes stations is 1.5 kilometers (0.93 mi).
