Drivers living in the suburbs are outraged by morning traffic jams, where they already have to spend almost an hour.

Since September 1, many parents have rushed to take their children to educational institutions in the mornings, so the number of cars on the city streets has almost doubled.

Some travelers try to avoid the intersection of Baltijos avenue and Šilutė highway, so they choose other entrances to the city.

“However, the traffic jam on Liepų Street on Friday was completely out of the picture. The distance of several kilometers from the Palanga Highway to the Mokyklos Street Viaduct had to be covered in the morning for more than half an hour. In total , I was almost an hour traveling. Traffic is already disturbed by road works at the intersection of Jaunystės street, where a traffic light is being installed. However, on the morning of that day, plumbers closed one of the traffic lanes, at the turnoff to Priestočio Street. What prevented them from announcing the work publicly in advance? People would have chosen other paths, “said a Klaipėda resident who had spent the morning in traffic.

Gintarė Butkienė, the communications director of Klaipėdos vanduo, posted information about the work done by plumbers on Liepų Street on Facebook chat accounts created by individuals only after receiving inquiries about traffic jams from Klaipėda journalists.

Information from chat groups sharing messages about congestion and traffic jams was released before noon yesterday. That information had to reach Klaipeda residents at night.

“We would like to inform you that on Liepų Street, at houses 73 and 75, the Klaipėdos Vanduo company is liquidating the accident of the sewage network. The company was informed about the accident on September 2. On Thursday, the Network Service employees clarified the causes of the accident, searched the location of the accident and located the accident on the green lawn, ”explained G. Butkienė.

Employees noticed that the sewer network was also broken in the driveway.

Therefore, as of September 3. The first traffic lane was closed, the place of the accident was marked with traffic signs, fenced. The Klaipėda County Police Commissariat and Klaipėda City Municipality have been informed about the closure of the first lane of traffic. The emergency response works are scheduled to be completed before September 6. 6 pm The dismantled asphalt pavement will be restored by contractors. We apologize for the inconvenience, “said G. Butkienė.
