Missing hatches. Vladivostok

Author: Do you think the problem is that the hatches stolen for scrap metal? Maybe it is stealing, but not the problem. If you look closely, you'll see a lot of examples, when the hatch is lying inside the hole. No it will not, and claimed not stolen - it just crashed and fell.
Do you think that the problem is unsolvable? I can assure you that in other cities, you can spend the whole day and did not find any open hatch. So there is no magic - just in Vladik all scored big bolt on the issue. And if you wanted to - would decide in a jiffy.
You think it's so hard to put in place the lid missing? Yes, there is nothing easier! Two thirds of the manhole can be closed the day back - there still remained safe seats for cover.
Do you think it expensive? No more useless granite curbs.





Well, it's time, by the way, stop to put in place livnevki hatches. They are designed for different loads. Livnevki put to the middle of the road, split by another truck, and the hatch would have remained intact.
It all started a week ago. As our car floats by sea from the United States, we decided to rent a Toyota is the local and went to see the city. They lived with friends in the center, so almost immediately proved to be one of the central streets. Evening, dark, unfamiliar terrain. I Rebuilds, look at the mirror and nearly flew into the open hatch. To get you seen it? We stop, climbs, look - it is. Luke opened the lid next to no.

 - Stolen perhaps - involve local boys, who were traveling with us.
Write down the address. We decided to find out phone service, which is engaged to call to report missing manhole. Guys are trying to learn the desired number. Meanwhile, our car has brakes before the second manhole without a cover. This time we were very careful - cost.



Dial up duty MUPV "Roads Vladivostok" (phone 274-61-88). To report missing manhole. We listen attentively, asked questions, write the address where the hatches were gone, ask the name and telephone number. In general, it is clear that people involved in the issue and quickly respond. Therefore, we will gladly leave their application, and with a sense of accomplishment go home to sleep.
The next day everything is interesting - the hatch closed or not. We understand that most likely closed. And without our call probably would all have been corrected, after all, the main street.
We leave the house, look - a hole on the ground. Surprised leave sfotat.

Passes screwy guy.
 - Hul you Fota cho hatches have not seen?
 - He opened!
 - Nudk they open circle.
When we moved on, we began to reach up to the words of the man. At first we could not even imagine the full extent of the disaster. Hatches are missing in just a single.



Sometimes a row.





As we drove here last night? Goose bumps!



Local residents someone popularly explained, hatches allegedly stealing Tajiks and pass them for scrap.
Who and how to steal, we have not seen, but who have seen and how their buying.



Not far to seek - the terms of ads and signs.



Of course, buyers have put a hand to it, but the problem is much broader than it seems. For example, this one in the hatch scrap shall not be - he's just broken.



And broken for a long time.
The problem, it turns out not guest workers, all these excuses. The trouble is that the hatches are no repairs for years and not even going. For example, workers put fresh curbs and holes left. He also was ordered to put curbs and holes to plug nobody asked. But curb beautiful, expensive, granite. How nice! Not that concrete, in other cities.



A hole in the road can be a neat pass by!



Ofigevayu from all of this a few days.

Loudly and excitedly poured out soul boys of the car rental, where they took a Toyota.
 - Whom do you mean by surprise? - They answered quietly, spreading his hands - Tajiks steal.
 - Yes what nafig Tajiks! Tales of it all. In Moscow, hundreds of citizens have to more migrant workers than here in Moscow, but to meet the open hatch - is nonsense. Yes, actually, anywhere hatches and not gone away. In half the cases, and they are close to the hole.



In general, the situation is clear.

1. The administration scored a great bolt hole on the road and has been the replacement of concrete curbs on the granite. The fact that the City Duma recognized all borders except for granite "are not consistent with the objectives and tasks of urban improvement." This anecdote is not - here's the link.

2. Part hatches passed for scrap. It does not suddenly happen last night. Holes from the hatches there for years.

3. Another part covers general nobody touched. They just fell apart yourself. They had not been mending and repair is not going to. Once a week we will call the hotline MUPV "Roads of Vladivostok," to find out how things are moving on our bid. Our application does not exist. We left a new one, but we understand that it is useless.

4. Drivers are not outraged, because they are used. On some streets do not have asphalt and nothing normul.



No one in the head does not come that open hatches around - this ad, tin and nonsense. Here they fit well with the surrounding landscape.



Residents of the city are accustomed to, began to go slowly and carefully. Circled. But do not always have time to dodge. Sometimes remain without wheels.





The last two pictures you know where? Director MUPV "Roads Vladivostok» a_gusnov started a blog in LJ. Photos from there, of comments.

Someone might think that we have specially collected in the city is the trash. Nifiga! This is simply a must see!

To understand the scale of the disaster was, we drove on a street of the city, street Kalinin, and photographed everything open hatches.

Look, enjoy!
