In the fight against snow, public utilities work around the clock in two shifts, the official website of the Mayor's Office of Astana reports.
On the afternoon of November 20, over 800 units of special equipment were involved in snow removal work, as well as more than 300 road workers.
On the day of November 20, over 22 thousand cubic meters of snow were transported to the snow ranges by 1648 flights of heavy trucks.
In total, since the beginning of the winter period, about 525 thousand cubic meters of snow have been exported from the city by over 44 thousand flights.
According to the rules, first of all, areas with very heavy traffic are cleared in the city so that there is no congestion on the roads. Also, areas with medium intensity are removed from snow — squares, station areas, sidewalks, access roads to social facilities, etc.
The priority is cleaning on central streets, on passenger transport routes, bus stops and sidewalks.
There are several equipped snow ranges in the capital. They are equipped with a system for reading license plates of dump trucks, video surveillance cameras are installed here, lighting is connected.
We ask residents and guests of the capital to be careful on the roads, observe safety rules, and refrain from long-distance trips in case of a storm warning.
In case of an emergency, call 112.
