The acquisition of 15 garbage trucks was achieved thanks to the donation of entrepreneurs, the investment of municipal resources and the Zofemat fund, with which began to regularize the service. As of last June, the daily garbage collection has been implemented, for which the private initiative donated 7 more trucks that allow to provide this service in all corners of the municipality.
In addition, the El Gavilán sanitary landfill now operates according to Official Mexican Standard 083, in addition to expanding its confinement capacity with the construction of a third cell. Today, it is recognized as one of the best in the state.
In addition, lighting of the Central zone has been improved with the installation of 114 luminaires with LED technology in the streets Juárez, Colombia and Avenida México; there are also works on Morelos Street, and Paraguay and Peru streets are also contemplated, as well as all those that go from east to west in the colony December 5.
Avenida México will also have new lighting, with the replacement of missing posts, change of wiring and transformers, as well as the installation of a thousand points of light from the northern entrance of the municipality to Los Camarones.
This was achieved through a modification agreement with the company Citelum, who maintained a remainder of 14 million pesos that was sought to optimize the benefit of this destination.
