Tulum, Quintana Roo — Mayor Diego Castañón Trejo toured the 11-a-side football pitch under construction at the town’s Unidad Deportiva sports complex, checking on the project’s progress and confirming that work is running on schedule.
During the visit, the mayor spoke with the crews building the pitch and reviewed the details of the remaining work at the site, which is designed to expand access to organised sport in the municipality.
“We are here at the soccer pitch. We have made progress on this important project, things are going very well, and we expect to inaugurate the pitch in December,” Castañón said.
Mario Castro, of the public works department, said crews will begin laying professional turf in the coming days. Workers are currently installing the perimeter fencing and painting the stands and the frames around the edge of the field.
The project is one of several sports infrastructure upgrades the municipal government is carrying out in Tulum, with the aim of giving children, young people and families proper facilities for sport and recreation.
