Road Construction in Bacalar: private roads, streets and access roads
We build private roads, subdivision streets, access roads and yards in Bacalar as one package, from survey and earthworks to pavement, drainage and signage. Bacalar is growing around the lagoon: access roads to lakeside villas and boutique hotels, streets in new subdivisions, car parks for tourism and private roads along the lagoon shore.
What We Build
Subdivision Streets
Streets for gated communities and lot developments with kerbs, sidewalks, storm drainage and conduits for services.
Survey & Pavement Design
Topography, geotechnical study and pavement design for the real traffic, from cars to 40-tonne trucks.
Signage & Safety
Line marking, traffic signs, speed humps, reflective studs and street lighting conduits.
The ground under a road in Bacalar
Around the lagoon the ground is soft white limestone and sascab with clay areas; bases can lose strength when wet, so drainage and compaction control are critical. The pavement design and the base thickness are set for these conditions after the soil study, not copied from another site.
Permits for a road in Bacalar
The municipality of Bacalar and environmental authorities protect the lagoon of seven colours and its stromatolites, so runoff and sediment from roadworks near the shore are strictly controlled. We map these approvals during design so that construction starts with every connection and clearing authorised.
Rain and drainage in Bacalar
Runoff must never carry sediment or oil into the lagoon; designs use swales, sediment traps, permeable paving and infiltration away from the shore rather than direct discharge.
Plants, materials and access in Bacalar
About three and a half hours from our yard but close to Chetumal’s suppliers; hot mix and materials come from the south of the state, which keeps costs slightly below Cancún.
