Puerto Vallarta, Mexico – After experiencing disruptions due to the passage of Hurricane Lidia, the city’s traffic light system is now fully operational, according to an official statement released by the municipal government.
The Traffic and Roads subdirectorate of the municipality detailed that all the affected traffic lights have been restored to 100 percent functionality, thereby ensuring the smooth flow of traffic and public safety.
At the intersection of México Avenues and Los Poetas Avenues, specialized crews utilized a crane, commonly referred to as a basket, to facilitate the intricate work of reconnecting the wiring system. The operation successfully restored the service, contributing to an efficient management of vehicular movement at this critical junction.
Similarly, at the Francisco Villa Avenue and Luis Donaldo Colosio Bypass intersection, approximately 200 meters of 10-gauge power wiring was meticulously installed. The extensive repair work resulted in the full restoration of this pivotal traffic control point.
For the traffic light situated at the crossing of Mexican Army and Manuel Lepe Avenues, the set of lights was found to be out of position. Here too, a crane was employed to realign the lights to their proper orientation, subsequently rendering them fully functional.
In addition, the power line for the traffic lights at Luis Donaldo Colosio and Río Danubio was reconnected after being left without service. At the Libramiento LDC and Río de la Plata intersection, a short in the post was identified and corrected, leading to a full restoration of traffic light operations.
To facilitate these comprehensive repair actions, approximately 200 meters of power cable were used across various sites. Furthermore, two sets of 5 lights, consisting of 2 green, 1 amber, and 2 red lights, were installed at the traffic light located at the Grandes Lagos Avenue and Jesús Rodríguez Barba Avenue intersection.
Despite the complete restoration of the traffic light system, the municipal government emphasized that work will continue in the form of regular maintenance checks. The need for ongoing upkeep is attributed to inevitable wear and tear due to constant usage, affirming the municipality’s commitment to ensuring a well-functioning, reliable system for its residents and visitors.
