Five strategic infrastructure projects are underway to improve the city’s water supply, Mayor Christian Agúndez stated, as the municipal government works to reduce water rationing in local neighborhoods.

The projects represent an investment of more than 70 million pesos (about $4 million USD) through the Social Infrastructure Contribution Fund (FAIS).

More than six kilometers of new pipeline have been installed to connect the wells that supply the city. The improvements are expected to increase water pressure and deliver more reliable service to neighborhoods in higher-elevation areas.

La Sanluqueña Station and Well Restored

“The La Sanluqueña pumping station has been reinforced and protected, which is key to ensuring that service reaches homes more consistently,” Agúndez said. The La Sanluqueña well, which had been out of service, has also been repaired and returned to operation. As a result, water will now be delivered directly to neighborhoods rather than by tanker truck, improving availability and allowing service to be restored more quickly when repairs are needed.

Real Unidad Pipeline Relocation Improves Access

In addition, the main water pipeline serving the Real Unidad neighborhood has been relocated. Previously, the line ran beneath homes, creating problems with leaks and illegal connections. It now runs alongside the roadway, where it is better protected and more accessible for maintenance crews.

“We recognize the public’s demand for water,” Agúndez said. “That is why we work in a coordinated and planned manner, ensuring that every step translates into more water reaching families’ taps.”

The mayor said the projects represent a historic investment in Cabo San Lucas and are part of his administration’s commitment to addressing infrastructure challenges through concrete action.
