Blocked Drain Causes Prolonged Flooding in Tlaquepaque, Jalisco

A drainage system that has been blocked for two years is causing persistent flooding in the city of Tlaquepaque, located in the state of Jalisco, Mexico. Residents report rising water levels that damage homes, vehicles and public infrastructure. The problem has also affected neighboring areas such as Tonalá, Zapopan and the broader Guadalajara metropolitan region.

Local communities are demanding that municipal authorities clean the clogged canal and improve the drainage infrastructure to prevent further damage and protect public safety.
