As reported by the Mayor of Klaipėda, Vytautas Grubliauskas, on the second day of Christmas, the waste will be transported on Saturday.
The biggest problem was in the southern part of the city, where no waste was transported for several days. “It was caused by the spread of the COVID-19 infection in the group of drivers of the airline that provides this service, and this contributed to aggravate the situation,” said the mayor.
He liked calling the director of the Klaipėda Regional Waste Management Center (KRATC) on Saturday morning and demanding that an immediate search be carried out on how to dispose of accumulated waste.
“According to the latest information I received recently, the carrier forces from all over Lithuania have been mobilized, as well as the working hours of the landfill have been extended to accept all collected waste, so the problem must be managed through joint efforts “explained the mayor.
15 minutes 11 Ecoservice employees fell ill.
According to UAB Ecoservice Klaipėda, which offers waste disposal services in Klaipėda, 11 employees of the company’s branch have been infected with the COVID-19 virus since December 20. Due to lack of staff, it was not possible to collect and remove the waste according to the established schedule during the holiday period.
“The company had planned that more employees would work in Klaipeda during the holidays, but due to circumstances beyond our control, the opposite happened. We are currently summoning colleagues from other companies in the region, trying to catch up with the usual hours. We ask Apologies to Klaip deda residents for the inconvenience. If there are no additional obstacles, we will clean up the city in the next 2 days, “said Saulius Budrevičius, Director of UAB Ecoservice Klaipėda.
