The Los Cabos municipal government has finished paving Calle Tabachines in the Las Veredas neighborhood of San José del Cabo, completing a project funded by 13.9 million pesos (roughly $700,000 USD) from the federal FAIS infrastructure program. Mayor Christian Agúndez Gómez and Baja California Sur Governor Víctor Manuel Castro Cosío delivered the finished street on April 6.
FAIS, the Fondo de Aportaciones para la Infraestructura Social, is a federal fund that channels money to municipalities for basic infrastructure in underserved areas. Construction on the Tabachines project began in late October 2025, and by January 2026 it had reached 70 percent completion.
What the Project Includes
The work goes well beyond a layer of asphalt. Crews laid 3,900 square meters of hydraulic concrete road surface across 350 linear meters of roadway. The project also installed new potable water and sewer lines serving 35 homes, built universal-access sidewalk ramps, and added 10 LED streetlights.
Officials say the upgrades will directly benefit 1,778 residents. For years, the street had no formal pavement, and neighbors had long requested improvements to drainage and water connections.
Part of a Broader Paving Push
Tabachines is the 15th street the current administration has delivered in its first 18 months in office. The municipality says it has initiated or completed work on 52 streets total during that period. The Tabachines project is one of 12 FAIS-funded paving efforts underway across Cabo San Lucas, San José del Cabo, and the northern delegation of Miraflores.
On the same day the Tabachines street was handed over, officials also inaugurated a new public park and community center in the El Caribe neighborhood of Cabo San Lucas. On April 7, the city planned to open the newly paved Calle Colina Alta y Baja in the Arcoíris neighborhood of Cabo San Lucas.
Las Veredas sits in one of the faster-growing residential zones of San José del Cabo, where new housing developments have outpaced basic infrastructure for years. The completed street now provides proper drainage, reliable water hookups, and pedestrian-safe sidewalks to a section of the neighborhood that previously lacked all three.
