The contractor is punished with a ruble for uncleaned sidewalks.

      Today, on March 4, the curators from the Kirov city improvement directorate left with a control check of the quality of cleaning city streets from snow. As noted in the city administration, inspectors record the presence of loose snow, slipperiness and how well the road services cope with cleaning the sidewalks to the full width.

      Victoria Chernyatyeva, head of the Department of Maintenance of the road network of the Directorate of Landscaping, noted that for each violation, the contractor is given an order, which he must eliminate within 24 hours. If the situation has not changed during the second check, then the payment for the work performed is reduced. "Penalties can reach 3-4 million rubles per month," Chernyatyeva said.

      During today's raid on the sites assigned to one of the contractors, a number of violations were identified. In the near future, the road services will eliminate them.

      On Tuesday, March 4, road workers were focused on sweeping sidewalks and treating them with anti-icing materials. The pedestrian zones were cleared of snow to a hard surface. Parking lots, stairs, and public transport stops were also cleared. More than 80 pieces of equipment and 100 contractors were working on Kirov streets today.
