In a recent incident on North Mechanic Street, heavy rain wreaked havoc, leaving several vehicles stranded, including a police cruiser. The downpour caused temporary patches to disintegrate due to a compaction issue from prior dry weather. Fortunately, there were no injuries or significant damages. El Campo’s Public Work Director praised the swift response of contractor Resicom, who promptly mobilized to address the situation. This incident occurred during a $2.6 million project to upgrade the city’s water lines. Rainfall was much needed in El Campo, with hopes for more to come.
