Nearly 200 manhole covers with the city's coat of arms were installed in Kirov.

      New manhole covers have replaced the old structures that had fallen into disrepair and now appear not only in courtyards but also on sections of major 2025 reconstruction projects. In areas with increased loads and shifting soils, specialists install the so‑called "floating" manhole covers — they are resistant to subsidence and asphalt heaving. Fifty‑three such covers have already been installed on the roadway over the past two years.

      As the company notes, manhole covers bearing the coat of arms of Kirov serve not only a practical but also an aesthetic function: they are becoming a kind of symbol of the city and familiarize residents and visitors with its heraldic heritage — from Vyatka to Khlynov.
