Water infrastructure issues reported in Tijuana and Ciudad Juárez

In Tijuana, residents of the Altabrisa Norte condominiums have reported that nearly 70 homes are at risk of collapse due to alleged negligence by the developer, Casas del Norte, and ongoing water leaks. The Municipal Civil Protection Directorate has labeled most of the 68 affected units with red tags, indicating an immediate need for evacuation. Residents expressed concern that upcoming heavy rains could trigger structural failures.

Additionally, a major water leak on Agua Caliente Boulevard in Tijuana has disrupted service for several neighborhoods, including Colonia Madero and Calete. The Comisión Estatal de Servicios Públicos de Tijuana (CESPT) is working to replace a section of pipe to restore service.

In Ciudad Juárez, the Junta de Agua y Saneamiento de Juárez (JMAS) repaired a 4-inch diameter water line leak in the Colinas del Sur neighborhood. The damage occurred during street leveling work performed by an external company. Water supply to the sector has since been restored.
