Urban maintenance and safety issues in Plovdiv

Overview

In Plovdiv, concerns regarding urban maintenance and public safety have emerged following an incident in the Sadiyski neighborhood. On August 31, a large tree branch fell onto a parked car on Bachkovo Street, causing significant material damage. Municipal Councilor Borislav Mateev noted that while an order for sanitary pruning had been issued on July 17 following resident reports, the administrative order had not been implemented in a timely manner.

By mid-September, municipal teams from the Gardens and Parks Enterprise, working with EVN technicians, intervened in the Mladost Street area to remove dangerous American ash tree branches that were entangled in electrical cables. These efforts aimed to mitigate risks to pedestrians and vehicles.
