Playa Brava is a private neighborhood located in José Ignacio, Maldonado in Uruguay. It consists of a subdivision of 94 lots of 1000 m2. The infrastructure for drinking water, sanitation, streets and electricity is underway.
The property used to have access only from Portuguesa road, and subsequently connected to Saiz Martínez road through an easement located on an adjacent property with an exit to Saiz Martínez.
The drinking water is supplied from Portuguesa road, and connected to an existing pipe in the neighborhood, built a few years ago in order to supply water to larger lots.
Sanitation consists of the construction of sewage system in the center of the streets, and home connection branches to the property line in front of each lot, located one meter from the lowest lateral limit of the property.
This is the proposal for two sewer collector basins.
A basin that drains by gravity, passing through the easement mentioned above, and along the sidewalk of Saiz Martínez road to the final disposal point, next to the entrance to Pinar del Faro neighborhood.
The other basin drains to the side of the Portuguesa road into a pumping well located at the northeast corner of the property. It pumps through a suction pipe to drain into the collector basin mentioned above, that also leads to Saiz Martínez.
Street crossing gutters are also built for water piping and drain rainwater as well as a drainage system towards Portuguesa road.
As far as the progress to date, the construction of 2400 meters of sanitation system, several gutters and 1300 meters of drinking water system is completed, as well as the pump line from the well to the point of drainage.
The rest that remains to be completed is the connection to the existing sanitation system, located on Saiz Martínez road, through an easement of 300 meters in length, and the construction of the pump well that collects the wastewater from inside of the subdivision to drain into the sewers that operate by gravity mentioned above.
Additional work was also carried out which consisted in the construction of a 600-meter long sewage system in La Juanita neighborhood, which reinforces the general network of the area.
The road infrastructure is underway, with all street openings completed, and 80% progress in the application of pavement of granular materials.
