Every rainy season and hurricane leaves potholes in Mahahual; we repair with hot mix and rebuilt bases, then seal and re-stripe so the same spots do not fail again. A high water table and mangroves behind the town limit infiltration, so streets rely on grades and swales; storm surge can flood the whole strip during hurricanes.
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.
Yearly inspection, post-hurricane response and scheduled works for hotels, condos and plazas.
Cruise ship days fill the streets near the port, so works there are scheduled on non-cruise days; the hurricane season is the main risk for open works. Repairs and sealing are scheduled in these windows, by sections, with traffic kept moving.
About four hours from our yard; hot mix travels a long way from the south, so concrete, pavers and stabilised bases are often more practical and more durable in salt and sand. We choose hot mix, concrete or pavers for each repair according to this supply situation.
The town is on sand and coastal limestone between sea and mangrove; bases need geotextiles or thicker granular layers, and salt and storms attack pavement edges.
Mahahual needs streets and car parks for the cruise port area and the village, access roads to beach hotels and villas along the Costa Maya, and repair of roads damaged by storms.
