Already this month, we will begin to build asphalt on its streets”, said the mayor of the city municipality, Nerijus Cesiulis, after meeting with the residents of Genių and Vėtrungės streets, which was received with wide smiles and loud applause from the residents of Alytus.

I am glad that the effort was not in vain. Today, it is a lot of fun to look residents in the eye and announce that they will have a paved street very soon, and not in the future, ”said the mayor of the city of Alytus municipality happily.
The mayor wanted to meet with the residents and consult before the work began, so that there would be various and rare problems with access, thujas, fences planted on state land, etc.
