Most all the construction in Oaxaca is done by hand! See those people down below street level? They dug those holes and ditches by hand. See those large squares of greenish cantera stone (natural to Oaxaca and comes in green, rose and white)? Each piece was carried by hand and placed just so. Another thing that is interesting about road construction here is that the streets aren't closed to pedestrians. You are free to walk right through the area, sometimes stepping over the cavernous holes.
