To prevent roads from flooding, storm drains were cleared in Mykolaiv during the rain

Yesterday, November 11, due to the rain in Mykolaiv, crews from the Municipal Enterprise “ELU Avtodorih” increased their patrols on city streets. Municipal workers cleared debris from storm grates and drainage inlets so that water could flow off the road and prevent flooding.

Rain washes leaves, branches, and sand off the roads. These can quickly clog the grates, even if they have already been cleaned as part of scheduled maintenance. That is why workers checked the storm drainage system and removed debris as it accumulated.

The work covered, among others, these avenues:

• Tsentralnyi Avenue;
• Myru Avenue;
• Bohoiavlenskyi Avenue;
• Heroes of Ukraine Avenue.

Crews also worked on the following streets, descent, and lane:

• 3 Voienna Street;
• Admiralska Street;
• Varvarivskyi Descent;
• Sportyvna Street;
• Oleh Hryhoriev Street;
• Buznyka Street;
• Troitska Street;
• Kosmonavtiv Street;
• Heroes of the Rescuers Street;
• Arkasivska Street;
• General Oleksa Almazov Street;
• Yevhenii Lohinov Street;
• Naberezhna Street;
• 2nd Naberezhna Street;
• Dmytro Kremen Street;
• Dachna Street;
• Oleksii Vadaturskyi Street;
• Velyka Morska Street;
• Spaska Street;
• Ozerna Street;
• Hromadianska Street;
• Lazurna Street;
• Shevchenko Street;
• Marko Kropyvnytskyi Street;
• Industrialna Street;
• 5th Parnykovyi Lane.

At the same time, the enterprise continues its scheduled cleaning, with work underway on roadways and adjacent areas.
