Drainage Maintenance Efforts in Odesa

The municipal enterprise «City Roads» in Odesa is actively engaged in maintaining systems that manage stormwater drainage from the city streets.

Currently, municipal workers are operating on the Romanian canal. Previously, similar work was carried out on the Kuyalnytsky and Shchelakivsky canals, as well as at the Buffer pond.

The Buffer pond, Romanian canal, and Kuyalnytsky canals are essential hydraulic structures designed to drain rain, drainage, and meltwater from the streets of the city.

Using specialized equipment, workers clear the channels and ponds of vegetation, debris, and silt. Particular focus is placed on the most clogged areas where drainage from private sector homes is located.

Regular cleaning of storm drains and sewer collectors throughout the city is also performed. Heavy machinery from «City Roads» is deployed for these tasks: excavators with special attachments, graders, MAZ trucks, and hydraulic systems for flushing pipes.
In case of heavy rainfall, these activities are carried out on an emergency basis.
