Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, Mexico – August 7, 2026 – The Municipal Water and Sanitation Board (JMAS) of Ciudad Juárez has announced that it rehabilitated 2,200 potholes created by repair work on the potable water and sewage network across various sectors of the city from January to July of this year.
These efforts are part of the pavement restoration process that follows interventions in the hydraulic infrastructure, such as leak repairs and pipe replacements. The figure also includes work performed as part of the drainage collector diversion project on Talamás Camandari Boulevard.
Lizbeth Chimal, coordinator of the Pothole Department, detailed that crews have worked in neighborhoods including Infonavit San Lorenzo, Partido Iglesias, Chaveña, Eco 2000, Infonavit Casas Grandes, Jardines del Seminario, Hidalgo, El Barreal, Ex Hipódromo, Melchor Ocampo, Aztecas, Santa Rosa, Parque Industrial Fernández, and México 68, among others.

- January: 298
- February: 303
- March: 307
- April: 464
- May: 468
- June: 250
- July: 110
JMAS stated that crews are working permanently to rehabilitate affected roadways, prioritizing high-impact projects and addressing emergency repairs. The objective is to reduce disruptions to vehicular traffic and improve mobility within the city.
This initiative underscores the ongoing commitment of JMAS to maintaining urban infrastructure and ensuring smooth transit for residents. The systematic approach to addressing potholes caused by necessary utility work aims to mitigate inconvenience and enhance the overall quality of life in Ciudad Juárez.
The significant number of rehabilitated potholes reflects the extensive network of water and sewage infrastructure in the city and the continuous need for maintenance and repair. By promptly restoring road surfaces, JMAS contributes to road safety and the efficient flow of traffic.
The project on Talamás Camandari Boulevard, specifically the drainage collector diversion, highlights the larger-scale undertakings that often necessitate temporary road disturbances. The inclusion of these repairs in the overall count demonstrates a comprehensive strategy for post-construction restoration.
The identified neighborhoods span various parts of Ciudad Juárez, indicating a city-wide effort rather than a localized one. This broad reach suggests that residents across different areas are benefiting from these rehabilitation efforts.
The monthly breakdown of rehabilitated potholes shows fluctuations, with April and May recording the highest numbers. This could be attributed to various factors, including the intensity of repair work during those months or the prioritization of certain areas.
JMAS continues to emphasize its dedication to minimizing the impact of its essential infrastructure work on daily life. The ongoing efforts to fill potholes are a testament to this commitment, aiming to ensure that the city’s roadways remain in optimal condition for all users.
