During the day shift on December 3, almost a thousand units of special equipment and about 2.7 thousand road workers are involved in snow removal work. Public utilities are working around the clock in an enhanced mode, the official website of the Mayor's Office of Astana reports.
During the night from December 2 to December 3, about two thousand cubic meters of snow were transported to the snow ranges by 189 flights of heavy trucks.
In total, since the beginning of the winter period, about 812 thousand cubic meters of snow have been exported from the city by more than 64 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.
