Aguascalientes Sinkhole Repair Begins After Year of Resident Concerns

Aguascalientes Sinkhole Repair Underway After Year of Disruption A large sinkhole that appeared over a year ago in Ojo de Agua, Aguascalientes, Mexico, is finally undergoing repairs. The sinkhole, located at the intersection of Avenida Ayuntamiento and Plaza Martires de Cananea, has caused significant problems for local residents. "It's very risky now that the rains are starting," said Ana Carreon, a local resident, expressing concern about the potential for the sinkhole to expand. The area has become a haven for pests and unsanitary conditions. Municipal authorities have initiated cleanup and debris removal, but a timeline for complete rehabilitation remains unclear. Gloria Torres, another resident, described the previous conditions as "rats, cockroaches, and a terrible smell." While the cleanup is a positive step, residents remain apprehensive about the approaching rainy season and its potential impact on the ongoing repairs. The situation highlights the challenges faced by communities dealing with infrastructure issues and the importance of timely repairs.
