Murmansk residents complain about unremoved snow on Lenin Avenue

March 25, 2023

On the main street of Murmansk there are big problems with snow removal. This applies in particular to the pedestrian zone.

Lenin Avenue in Murmansk is sometimes inaccessible for comfortable pedestrian traffic due to unremoved snow and ice on the sidewalks. This was reported to “The Eastern Heraldin Murmansk” by local residents.

Lenin Avenue is one of the main streets of the city, it houses a large number of administrative buildings and government agencies. However, getting to it anywhere on foot is problematic: here and there there is snow mush or ice.

For obvious reasons, elderly people and mothers with prams encounter particularly severe traffic problems along Lenin Avenue, as walking along the sidewalk becomes a real test.

Apparently, the residents of Murmansk can only hope for an early thaw, so the opportunity to comfortably walk along the wide beautiful avenue will again appear.

Recall, earlier “The Eastern Heraldin Murmansk” said that they put the roads in Kandalaksha in order only after the intervention of the prosecutor’s office.
