Motor grader clearing a street in Cabo San Lucas after the rain

Public Services crews in Cabo San Lucas are cleaning and regrading streets damaged by the rain of the past few days. They are using motor graders and dump trucks to remove the mud, sand and rocks that runoff left in at least seven parts of the city, the Los Cabos city government said on October 3.

Streets and neighborhoods covered

According to the city, crews have worked on:

  • Calle Misioneros, Mesa Colorada 3
  • The Rosa Delia neighborhood
  • Calle Libertad, Centro
  • Avenida Arenas Blancas, Las Brisas
  • Paseo Pacífico, at the entrance to Los Cangrejos
  • Camino a Candelaria, at the entrance to Leonardo Gastélum
  • The Gastélum neighborhood

José Ramón Sánchez Guluarte, who heads Public Services in Cabo San Lucas, said crews are going to different parts of the city with motor graders and dump trucks. They are starting with the streets that have the most built-up debris.

Why it matters

Many dirt roads and arroyo crossings in Cabo San Lucas fill with sand and rock after heavy rain. Regrading levels the surface so cars, buses and emergency vehicles can get through again.

The cleanup is happening alongside the "Cruce Seguro" (Safe Crossing) operation, run by Civil Protection, police and the armed forces where water is flowing across city streets. The city has also opened four temporary shelters because more rain is forecast.

Tips for drivers

The city asked drivers to:

  • Drive carefully and slow down near the machinery.
  • Follow the signs posted by crews.
  • Keep your distance from working vehicles.
  • Don't park in work areas, so the machines can move faster.

If your street still has mud or rocks after the rain, you can report it to the city at (624) 146 7600. Give the neighborhood, the street and a landmark, and send a photo if you can. Don't drive through stretches where water is still flowing, even if it looks shallow. The current can hide potholes or washouts.
