On October 2, 2025, the work of cleaning roadside ditches in Shymkent continued. These works were organized by the Karatau municipal state institution and aimed at preparing the city's infrastructure for the rainy season. The cleanliness of ditches and water channels is an important measure that directly affects the safety and comfortable life of city residents.

The work was carried out in several directions. First, roadside ditches and sewer systems were cleaned of garbage, grass, and soil debris. This step will allow water to flow freely and prevent the accumulation of rainwater and melted snow. During the cleaning, special equipment was used - excavators, cranes, and pressure water jets. In addition, workers manually cleaned the ditches from garbage, tree branches, and other foreign objects.

The second direction is to identify blockages and places where garbage has accumulated in the ditches. Workers walked along the ditches, removing blockages and ensuring the free flow of water. This measure is aimed at preventing flooding, preventing water from accumulating along the roads and near residential buildings. In addition, removing blockages in the ditches is also important in order not to impede traffic on the city streets.

In preparation for the rainy season, the condition of water-filled roads, ditches, and sewer systems was thoroughly inspected. Any defects and violations identified during the work were repaired or restored. These measures will allow the city's road infrastructure to function properly during the rainy season and create a safe environment for residents.

The Karatau municipal state institution aims to carry out these works systematically. The main task is to prevent flooding, facilitate traffic, and ensure the safety of residents by monitoring and cleaning each ditch and waterway in a timely manner. In addition, the institution's employees also urge residents not to throw garbage into the ditches, as this can prolong the work and damage the infrastructure.

In addition to cleaning work, the Karatau institution is also carrying out work to increase the number of garbage bins in ditches and along the roads. This is aimed at educating city residents not to throw garbage on the roads and to maintain cleanliness. It is especially important during the rainy season to prevent garbage from falling into ditches and obstructing the free flow of water. Therefore, explanatory work is being carried out with residents, and efforts are being made to increase environmental culture and a sense of responsibility.

Cleaning roadside ditches is not only a technical task, but also an event that requires the cooperation of city residents and institutions. In addition to utility workers, volunteers sometimes also participate in cleaning operations, which increases the effectiveness of the event and forms the ecological culture of residents. In addition, to increase the quality and speed of work, a special schedule and plan are drawn up, which sets the deadline for cleaning each ditch and canal.

During the work, special attention was paid to preparing for the rainy season. After the ditches and canals were cleaned, additional preventive measures were taken to prevent flooding. For example, timely water discharge, removal of dams, control of water flow, and, if necessary, redirection to special reservoirs were carried out. These measures ensure the stability of the city's infrastructure and create a safe environment for residents.

The management of the Karatau municipal state institution noted the need for systematic cleaning of ditches. The work will continue not only in October, but also at other times of the year. The goal is to ensure the stability of the city's infrastructure, prevent flooding during the rainy season, and increase the safety of residents.

In addition, the employees of the institution are also conducting informational work among residents. They are urging them not to throw garbage into ditches, not to block roadside drains, and to observe personal and social responsibility. These actions will increase the effectiveness of ditch cleaning and contribute to the development of environmental culture among city residents.

In general, roadside ditch cleaning is an important part of preparing the city's infrastructure for the rainy season. The Karatau municipal state institution carries out these works systematically, contributing to the creation of a safe and comfortable environment for residents. During the work, attention is paid not only to technical aspects, but also to the environmental culture and responsibility of residents.

In the future, a systematic plan and preventive measures for cleaning ditches and maintaining road infrastructure will continue. Cleanliness and safety are the joint responsibility of every resident and city institutions. The Karatau municipal state institution, with the support of residents and its own efforts, is constantly carrying out work aimed at improving the city's infrastructure and ensuring readiness for the rainy season.
