Avenida Aquiles Serdán and Malecón. In addition, the State Institute of Civil Protection announced that the circulation through the Derivative Dam was closed due to the high levels of water, so it asks the population not to approach the main accesses of this point and use other access roads. We recommend you read: Finally, the invitation is reiterated to avoid entering streams, drains, fords or any other flow of water, since otherwise you run the risk of being dragged by strong water currents or even losing your life.
