A deep well was constructed in Poblacion in 1900 by a Spaniard leader where the well is now located inside the Church below the altar. The locals provided the labor. The well depth is more or less {{convert|30| fathom|m ft}} and the diameter is more or less {{convert|3|m|abbr=out|spell=in}}. Information revealed that the well was constructed through manual digging using bolos, crowbars, pulleys, and rope for digging into the soil stones, which contains limestone rock.
 
The first bridge between Poblacion of Dauis and Mansasa, Tagbilaran, was constructed by Spaniards during their reign, possibly in the 18th century. The bridge is still there and in place, used as a connection between the two islands. The other bridge was constructed near the old City Hall of Tagbilaran City, crossing towards Totolan. That bridge is known as 'the causeway' and leads as far as Panglao Beach resort about {{convert|17|km|abbr=out}} from Tagbilaran.
