Every rainy season and hurricane leaves potholes on Cozumel; we repair with hot mix and rebuilt bases, then seal and re-stripe so the same spots do not fail again. Streets drain to infiltration wells and the sea, and hurricane rain overwhelms many of them; resizing wells and protecting coastal road edges are frequent needs.
Yearly inspection, post-hurricane response and scheduled works for hotels, condos and plazas.
Routing and hot rubberised sealant that keeps water out of the base and slows deterioration.
Remove worn surface, keep kerb and drain levels and lay a new wearing course.
Cruise days and the high season fill the streets; works near the waterfront and terminals are planned at night or on quiet days, and the hurricane season sets the risk window. Repairs and sealing are scheduled in these windows, by sections, with traffic kept moving.
Everything arrives on the cargo ferry from the mainland; hot mix depends on local production on the island, and heavy equipment crossings are planned in advance, which explains the higher location factor. We choose hot mix, concrete or pavers for each repair according to this supply situation.
Cozumel needs car parks and internal roads for hotels and the cruise terminals, resurfacing of island streets, access roads to villas and condos, and repair after every hurricane season.
The municipality of Cozumel issues licences; works on the coastal road and near the reef and mangroves face extra environmental limits, and federal zone rules apply on the shore.
