Kakha Kaladze: If the population helps us to clean the snow-covered roads, we will be grateful - I think it should not be a problem for a person to clean the road in front of his/her house

It is snowing in the city for the sixth day - we are doing our best to keep the central streets clean so that public transport can move without any interruptions, Tbilisi Mayor Kakha Kaladze said at a meeting of the capital's government.m

As Kakha Kaladze explains, more than 5000 tons of technical salt have been used in recent days, while the work is delayed due to heavy snow.

"We have an unusual snowfall in March in the capital. It is the sixth day that it's snowing in the city. Relevant services have switched to 24-hour regime. All are mobilized as much as possible, cleaning works are underway. There were some delays in the incorporated villages. Mostly it was the dead ends, the turns where the heavy snow created some problems.

Of course, Tbilservice Group, the board and our contractor companies are working 24 hours a day for the sixth day. Streets are being cleaned, technical salt is being used. More than 5,000 tons of technical salt were used.

It is still snowing in Tbilisi. Relevant services continue to work. Some problems have arisen in terms of the movement of public transport. There were delays, however we tried our best to clear the central roads. Secondary streets, dead ends, turns are left. Work is underway here as well, but we are facing problems. These are cars that are parked on the street, due to which the equipment can not enter and can not perform the work. These are some of the problems. I understand the people whose streets, dead ends, turns we have not yet reached. Friends, there are about 750 streets, turns and dead ends - Tskneti, Tabakhmela, Kiketi ... All are mobilized and works are underway. Continuous snow also causes delays in the works. We still do not stop. We do our best to keep the central streets clean, so that public transport can move without any interruptions. The operation of public transport has not stopped on the central streets all these days. There was a small delay, but public transport served the population," said Kaladze.

He called on the population to help, in particular, to clean the area near their house.

"If there is support, we will be grateful. I think it shouldn't be a problem for a person to clean the road in front of his/her own house. It will be a great help for us and I would like to thank all the citizens who are involved in the cleaning of a specific space," said Kaladze.
