Subdivision Infrastructure in Bacalar: streets, networks and drainage for new lots

Lots in Bacalar sell when buyers drive in on a finished street with water, sewer and power ready; we build that infrastructure phase by phase. 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.

What We Build

Utility Handover

As-built drawings, tests and paperwork for municipal reception and connection agreements.

Water & Sewer Networks

Potable water mains, house connections, sewer lines and lift stations built to CAPA or Aguakan standards.

Underground Power & Telecom

Duct banks, transformer bases, street lighting and fibre conduits ready for CFE and carriers.

Storm drainage in a development 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. The drainage of every street is designed for these conditions and tested before the pavement goes on.

Logistics for infrastructure works 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. Materials and crews are planned around these constraints so each phase is ready when sales need it.

Ground conditions 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.

Traffic and work windows in Bacalar

Tourist traffic peaks in winter and holidays; works near the lagoon are best planned in the dry season to avoid sediment runoff during heavy rain.
