The roadside along the road to Holosko Cemetery on Mykolaychuk Street in Lviv will be cleared of rubbish and turned into a green area, the Shevchenkivskyi District Administration has announced.
This concerns the stretch opposite the social housing, in the direction of the cemetery. For many years, construction materials were dumped there, forming an illegal rubbish tip that was eventually overgrown with self-seeded trees and dense vegetation.
Along the section more than 300 metres long lie broken reinforced concrete floor slabs, concrete staircases, window units and other construction waste. The bulky fragments are partly hidden beneath the crowns of trees and shrubs, and the area is overgrown with wild vegetation.
The Shevchenkivskyi District Administration notes that work to clear the area will start this week, with heavy specialist machinery, including a crane, brought in to remove large concrete structures and other waste. The work is expected to last for around a month, and no restrictions on public or private transport are planned.
Officials emphasise that the cluttered area borders the site at 36–38 Mykolaychuk Street, where last year, as part of the “Movement without Barriers” project, an accessible public space was created. Nearby, work is also under way on the creation of the “Linear Park”, which will link the UNBROKEN centre with the prosthetics workshop under the same project.
Once the area has been cleared, it is to be levelled, topped up with soil and sown with green lawns, to turn the neglected roadside into an orderly part of the district.
