The efforts aim to reduce potential disruptions and maintain the condition of the stormwater systems. Brigades are clearing debris like leaves and trash, which can clog drainage systems during heavy rains. They're also identifying vulnerable spots to address promptly. The municipal coordinator of Civil Protection and Firefighters, Carlos Gamboa Ortiz, shared that these actions are crucial for preventing obstructions and ensuring efficient drainage.

For those living or visiting Isla Mujeres, it's important to stay alert and follow local advisories. Keep your surroundings clear of debris and report any issues to the provided numbers. The government's proactive measures will help keep the island safe and dry during the rainy season.

Remember, every little bit helps in maintaining the island's infrastructure and keeping everyone safe. Stay informed and stay prepared!
