Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, Mexico – September 12, 2026 – The State Government has officially launched a significant road repaving program aimed at enhancing the urban infrastructure across 37 neighborhoods in Ciudad Juárez. The initial phase of the project began yesterday, Friday, September 11, on Corinto Street in the Infonavit San Lorenzo area.
Infrastructure Improvement Program Underway
This initiative is part of the broader ‘Cuenta Conmigo’ (Count on Me) program, designed to address the deteriorating road conditions in various parts of the city. The program underscores the government’s commitment to improving the quality of life for residents by providing safer and more efficient transportation routes.
First Works on Corinto Street
The kickoff event for the repaving of Corinto Street was attended by local officials, marking the beginning of extensive work that will span multiple sectors. The selection of Corinto Street for the inaugural phase highlights the immediate need for repairs in the Infonavit San Lorenzo neighborhood, which has experienced significant wear and tear on its road surfaces.
The project involves comprehensive repaving, which includes the removal of old, damaged asphalt and the laying of new, durable road surfaces. This process is expected to not only improve driving conditions but also contribute to the overall aesthetic appeal of the affected areas.
Impact on Ciudad Juárez Residents
The repaving program is anticipated to have a positive impact on thousands of residents in Ciudad Juárez. Improved roads are expected to reduce vehicle maintenance costs, enhance traffic flow, and increase safety for both drivers and pedestrians. The 37 targeted neighborhoods will benefit from modern, well-maintained infrastructure, which is crucial for urban development and community well-being.
Economic and Social Benefits
Beyond immediate infrastructure improvements, the project is also expected to generate local employment opportunities, contributing to the economic vitality of Ciudad Juárez. The investment in public works signals a commitment to long-term growth and sustainability for the city.
The ‘Cuenta Conmigo’ program, under which this repaving initiative falls, encompasses various community development efforts, demonstrating a holistic approach to urban improvement. The State Government aims to foster a sense of pride and ownership among residents by actively involving them in the revitalization of their communities.
Future Phases and Community Engagement
While the initial focus is on the 37 identified neighborhoods, the State Government has indicated that similar projects may be considered for other areas of Ciudad Juárez in the future, based on ongoing assessments of road conditions and community needs. Public engagement and feedback will be integral to the successful implementation and expansion of such initiatives.
Residents in the affected areas are encouraged to stay informed about the project’s progress and any potential temporary disruptions. The government has pledged to minimize inconvenience during construction and ensure timely completion of the repaving works.
This extensive road repaving program represents a significant step forward in modernizing Ciudad Juárez’s infrastructure and underscores the State Government’s dedication to creating a more livable and prosperous urban environment for all its citizens.
